4: INSTALLATION
6. Inspect the item(s):
l Photograph any damage that may have occurred
during shipping.
l Verify the received goods against the packing list.
If there is any damage or shortages, you must contact
Tormach within 30 days of receipt. Create a support
ticket with Tormach Technical Support at
tormach.com/how-to-submit-a-support-ticket for
guidance on how to proceed.
7. Cut all shipping straps securing the machine, the
accessory box, and the coolant tank to the pallet with
snips. Remove the accessory box from the pallet and set
it aside for later use.

pallet.
8. Slide the coolant tank into the stand. You may have to
turn the coolant tank so that the fin in the stand aligns
with the slot in the coolant tank.
Figure 4-3: Coolant tank installed in the stand.
Note: Take care to keep the lines behind the
coolant tank neat and tidy to prevent kinks.
9. Find the coolant hose that's pre-installed on the
bandsaw, and put its loose end into the coolant tank.

tank.
CAUTION! Team Lift Required:You must have
the aid of more than one person to lift and
move the object. The object is heavy, and lifting
it by yourself can cause serious injury.
10. To move the bandsaw off of the pallet, we recommend
reusing parts of the machine crate that you previously
disassembled to make a staircase at the right-hand side
of the pallet. Before you lift the machine, verify that you
have assistance to help you move it off of the pallet. We
recommend two people.
NOTICE! While lifting the machine, don't use the
infeed table as a lifting point. If you do, there's a
risk of machine damage.
a. Remove the wooden blocks used to keep the
bandsaw's wheels and feet in place during shipping
with a pry bar or a hammer. Then, remove the
wooden slat along the right-hand side of the pallet.
b. Assemble three 2×4s from the machine's crate on the
right-hand side of the pallet to create a step.
c. Suspend the bandsaw's power cord so that it's out of
way for moving the machine.
d. Lift and guide the bandsaw off of the pallet and down
the steps.
11. Move the machine to the desired installation location
with its handle and wheels.
