All,
I need some help and advise on how to assemble my brand new Powermatic 14" bandsaw with Riser (OK, small XMAS gloat). It was delivered safe and sound in 2 large heavy boxes.
First--this is the very first shop I have ever had (I am a wood turner) and its definitly the first bandsaw I have ever had to put together. So far I have assembled the mobile base and unpacked the bandsaw base on to it.
Now comes the hard part--tackling the rest of the assembly. So lots of questions...
Thanks in advance
- This seems like a 2 person job, or can 1 person handle the bandsaw head and assembly?
- Is there any writeup or video available showing how to manage the assembly?
- My plan is to convert the machine to 220 but just use a seperate shoplight (plugged to its own 110V outlet) rather than buying a 220V bulb. Anyone see an issue with this approach.
- Any other advice on how to make sure the saw is setup and working correctly?
