The downfeed valve starts and stops headstock 

downfeed.

The downfeed rate is adjusted by turning the 

downfeed rate adjust knob (Figure 37). Turning 

the knob clockwise decreases the downfeed rate 

and turning the knob counterclockwise increases 

the downfeed rate.

During operation, pay attention to the chips 

being produced from the cut and compare them 

to the Chip Inspection Chart on Page 28 to 

properly set the downfeed rate.

The headstock can be swiveled to cut angles 

0°–45° to the right and 0°–60° to the left for a 

total swing of 105°

1.  DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER!

2.  Loosen the lock handle shown in Figure 

38, then swivel the headstock to the desired 

angle, using the angle scale as a guide.

3.  Move the saw through its full range of 

motion to make sure the blade will not 

contact the vise during operation, then 

tighten the swivel lock handle.
