All machinery will develop serious rust problems 

and corrosion damage if it is not properly 

prepared for storage. If decommissioning this 

machine, use the steps in this section to ensure 

that it remains in good condition.

1.  DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER!

2.  Thoroughly clean all unpainted, bare metal 

surfaces, then coat them with a light weight 

grease or rust preventative. Take care to 

ensure these surfaces are completely covered 

but that the grease or rust preventative is 

kept off of painted surfaces.

If the machine will be out of service for only 

a short period of time, use a quality medium-

weight machine oil (not auto engine oil) in 

place of the grease or rust preventative.

3.  Loosen or remove the belt and the blade so 

they do not stretch while the machine is 

stored.

4.  If the machine will be out of service for only 

a short period of time, start the machine 

once a week and run all gear-driven 

components for a few minutes. This will 

put a fresh coat of gear oil on the gearing 

components inside the gearbox. 

 

If it will be out of service for a long period 

of time, drain, then completely fill the 

gearbox with the recommended gear oil so 

components above the normal oil level do 

not develop rust. (Make sure to put a tag 

on the controls as a reminder for the re-

commissioning process to adjust the gear oil 

level before starting the machine.)

5.  Completely cover the machine with a tarp 

or plastic sheet that will keep out dust and 

resist liquid or moisture. If machine will be 

stored in/near direct sunlight, use a cover 

that will block the sun's rays.

Make sure the machine is sufficiently 

supported and stable so that it will not shift 

during this procedure.

4.  Remove the four hex bolts that secure the 

gearbox cover, then remove the gearbox 

cover and downfeed ram bracket.

5.  Use a handheld oil pump to draw the oil out 

of the gearbox, then use a rag to remove any 

remaining oil and debris.

6.  Add oil to the gearbox until it is 

approximately half full, then replace the 

gearbox cover.

1.  DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER!

2.  Loosen the four hex bolts that secure the 

machine to the cabinet.

3.  With the help of another person, carefully 

remove the saw from the stand and place 

it on a workbench. Use wooden blocks to 

support the machine so that the gearbox 

cover is horizontal, as shown in Figure 44.
