SECTION 1: SAFETY  
For Your Own Safety, Read Instruction  
Manual Before Operating this Equipment  
The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This  
manual uses a series of symbols and signal words which are intended to convey the level of  
importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember  
that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper  
accident prevention measures.  
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,  
WILL result in death or serious injury.  
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,  
COULD result in death or serious injury.  
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,  
MAY result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert  
against unsafe practices.  
This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about  
proper operation of the equipment.

Safety Instructions for Power Tools  
9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make  
sure your extension cord is in good condi-  
tion. Conductor size should be in accor-  
dance with the chart below. The amperage  
rating should be listed on the motor or tool  
nameplate. An undersized cord will cause  
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of  
power and overheating. Your extension  
cord must also contain a ground wire and  
plug pin. Always repair or replace exten-  
sion cords if they become damaged.  
15. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.  
Consult the instruction manual for recom-  
mended accessories. The use of improper  
accessories may cause risk of injury.  
16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTION-  
AL STARTING. On machines with mag-  
netic contact starting switches there is a  
risk of starting if the machine is bumped or  
jarred. Always disconnect from power  
source before adjusting or servicing. Make  
sure switch is in OFF position before recon-  
necting.

18. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before fur-  
ther use of the tool, a guard or other part  
that is damaged should be carefully  
checked to determine that it will operate  
properly and perform its intended function.  
Check for alignment of moving parts, bind-  
ing of moving parts, breakage of parts,  
mounting, and any other conditions that  
may affect its operation. A guard or other  
part that is damaged should be properly  
repaired or replaced.  
21-30  
10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. DO NOT  
wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties,  
rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which  
may get caught in moving parts. Non-slip  
footwear is recommended. Wear protec-  
tive hair covering to contain long hair.  
11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also  
use face or dust mask if cutting operation  
is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have  
impact resistant lenses, they are NOT  
safety glasses.  
19. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNAT-  
TENDED. TURN POWER OFF. DO NOT  
leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.  
12. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to  
hold work when practical. It is safer than  
using your hand and frees both hands to  
operate tool.  
20. NEVER OPERATE A MACHINE WHEN  
TIRED, OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF  
DRUGS OR ALCOHOL. Full mental alert-  
ness is required at all times when running  
a machine.  
13. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper foot-  
ing and balance at all times.  
21. NEVER ALLOW UNSUPERVISED OR  
UNTRAINED PERSONNEL TO OPER-  
ATE THE MACHINE. Make sure any  
instructions you give in regards to the  
operation of the machine are approved,  
correct, safe, and clearly understood.  
14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep  
tools sharp and clean for best and safest  
performance. Follow instructions for lubri-  
cating and changing accessories.

Additional Safety Instructions for Meat Saws  
1. DO NOT OPERATE WITH DULL OR  
BADLY WORN BLADES. Dull blades  
require more effort to use and are difficult  
to control. Inspect blades before each use.  
8. ALWAYS FEED MATERIAL EVENLY  
AND SMOOTHLY. DO NOT force or twist  
blade while cutting, especially when saw-  
ing through bone.  
2. NEVER POSITION FINGERS OR  
THUMBS IN LINE WITH THE CUT.  
Serious personal injury could occur.  
9. DO NOT MANUALLY STOP OR SLOW  
BLADE after turning off the saw. Allow it to  
come to a complete stop before you leave  
it unattended.  
3. DO NOT OPERATE THIS SAW WITH-  
OUT WHEEL, PULLEY, AND BLADE  
GUARDS IN PLACE.  
10. ALL INSPECTIONS, ADJUSTMENTS,  
AND MAINTENANCE ARE TO BE DONE  
WITH THE POWER OFF and the plug  
pulled from the outlet. Wait for all moving  
parts to come to a complete stop.  
4. WHEN REPLACING BLADES, make sure  
teeth face down toward the table. The  
force of the cut is always down towards  
the table. Make sure the blade is properly  
tensioned.  
11. HABITS—GOOD  
AND  
BAD—ARE  
HARD TO BREAK. Develop good habits  
in your shop and safety will become sec-  
ond-nature to you.  
5. CUTS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FULLY  
SUPPORTED by the table or some type of  
support fixture.  
12. IF AT ANY TIME YOU ARE EXPERIENC-  
ING DIFFICULTIES PERFORMING THE  
INTENDED OPERATION, STOP USING  
THE MACHINE! Then contact our service  
department or ask a qualified expert how  
the operation should be performed.  
6. DO NOT BACK MEAT AWAY from the  
blade while the saw is running. Plan your  
cuts so you always cut through the meat.  
If you need to back the meat out, turn the  
bandsaw off and wait for the blade to  
come to a complete stop. Do not twist or  
put excessive stress on the blade while  
backing meat away.  
13. ALWAYS SANITIZE AND CLEAN ALL  
EXPOSED PARTS OF SAW THOR-  
OUGHLY AFTER CUTTING MEAT.  
14. IF YOU ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH SAFE  
MEAT HANDLING TECHNIQUES, then  
contact your local Board of Health or  
the USDA for proper sanitary practices.  
7. BLADE SHOULD BE RUNNING AT  
FULL SPEED before beginning a cut.  
No list of safety guidelines can be complete.  
Every shop environment is different. Always  
consider safety first, as it applies to your  
individual working conditions. Use this and  
other machinery with caution and respect.  
Failure to do so could result in serious per-  
sonal injury, damage to equipment or poor  
work results.  
Bacteria from raw meat has been frequently  
linked to illness and even death! Describing  
proper meat handling techniques outside of  
cleaning the bandsaw is beyond the scope of  
this manual. If you are unclear about sanitary  
meat handling practices, contact your local  
Board of Health or the USDA to research the  
proper methods of meat handling.

SECTION 3: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS  
Amperage Draw  
Plug-Type  
3
The Model G0560 features a 110/220V 4 HP  
motor that is prewired at 110V.  
The cord set enclosed is equipped with a NEMA  
5-15 plug (Figure 1a).  
Amperage Draw  
110V (prewired) .................................... 12 Amps  
220V ...................................................... 6 Amps  
Circuit Breaker  
Use the following guidelines when choosing a cir-  
cuit breaker (circuit breakers rated any higher are  
not adequate to protect the circuit):  
Figure 1a. NEMA 5-15 plug and receptacle.  
Circuit Breaker  
110V (prewired) ..........................20 Amp, 1 Pole  
220V ..........................................10 Amp, 2 Pole  
If the bandsaw is rewired to operate on a 220V  
power source, the plug must be replaced with a  
NEMA 6-15 plug (Figure 1b).

Circuit Capacity  
Rewiring To 220V  
Always check to see if the wires in your circuit are  
capable of handling the amperage draw from  
your machine, as well as any other machines that  
could be operating on the same circuit. If you are  
unsure, consult a qualified electrician.  
The Model G0560 can be rewired to operate on a  
220V power source. The motor must be rewired  
according to the wiring diagram on the motor  
label. The wiring configuration can also be found  
on the inside of the motor wire cover, as well as  
on page 33.  
If the circuit breaker trips or the fuse blows regu-  
larly, your machine may be operating on a circuit  
that is close to its amperage draw capacity.  
However, if an unusual amperage draw does not  
exist and a power failure still occurs, contact a  
qualified electrician.  
This procedure takes moderate electrical skill and  
the rewiring job should be inspected by a licensed  
electrician before turning the machine ON.  
Extension Cords  
Grounding  
If you find it necessary to use an extension  
cord with this machine:  
Only use a cord that is rated for standard ser-  
vice (Grade S).  
Electrocution or a fire  
can result if the machine  
is not grounded correct-  
ly. Make sure all electri-  
cal circuits are ground-  
ed. DO NOT use the  
machine if it is not  
grounded.  
Only use a cord that contains a grounding  
prong.  
Use at least a 16 gauge cord if the cord is 50  
feet long or less.  
Use at least a 14 gauge cord if the cord is  
between 50-100 feet.  
NOTICE  
The wire on the power cord with green or  
green and yellow striped insulation is the  
grounding conductor.  
Always repair or replace cords when they  
become worn or damaged.  
We DO NOT recommend using an extension  
cord if you are operating your bandsaw on a 220V  
power source.  
In the event of an electrical short, grounding  
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a  
path of least resistance to disperse electric cur-  
rent. This tool is equipped with a power cord that  
has an equipment-grounding prong. The outlet  
must be properly installed and grounded in accor-  
dance with all local codes and ordinances.

Site Considerations  
Clean Up  
The table and guard pieces come with a protec-  
tive coating. Peel this off before cleaning these  
pieces. Clean and sanitize all parts of the saw  
that will be in contact with meat or any other food  
items. The smaller items and table will fit in most  
dishwashers. This is probably the easiest method  
of cleaning and sanitizing these parts. For the  
larger parts of the saw, if a dishwasher is not  
available, clean with a sanitizing agent. See  
Section 5: Sanitation for details on sanitizing.  
Get in the habit of cleaning your saw thoroughly  
to avoid contamination and illnesses.  
Unsupervised children and  
visitors could cause serious  
personal injury to them-  
selves with this machine.  
Choose a site for placement  
in your shop where you can  
safely lock visitors and chil-  
dren away when you are not  
with them.  
Floor Load  
The Model G0560 weighs 127 lbs. and has a  
base footprint of 16" x 18".  
When cleaning with sanitizers, always fol-  
low the recommendations on the manu-  
facturer’s label, and make sure that the  
product will do the job for which you  
intend. Never use a product that will make  
your meat unsafe for human consumption.  
Failure to follow this warning may lead to  
sickness or death!  
Working Clearances  
Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of  
material to be processed, and space for auxiliary  
stands, work tables or other machinery when  
establishing a location for your bandsaw.

ground wires mount underneath the switch with  
the 10-24 x 12" Phillips screw, nut and star wash-  
er. Do not pinch the wires while installing them. If  
they will not reach, carefully cut back the outer  
layer of the black cord. Do not cut insulation on  
the smaller wires inside!

Meat Grinder  
The Model G0560 comes with a meat grinder.  
Before assembling this for use, clean and sanitize  
its parts. See Section 5: Sanitation for details on  
sanitizing. Figure 28 shows the meat grinder  
components.  
The meat grinder should not be attached  
to the saw when not in use. Meat fat is  
required to lubricate the grinder compo-  
nents during operation. Grinder will be  
damaged if allowed to turn “dry”.  
Keyway

SECTION 6: OPERATIONS  
Blade Guard  
Damage to your eyes and ears could result  
from using this machine without proper pro-  
tective gear. Always wear safety glasses and  
hearing protection when operating this  
machine.  
Figure 32 shows the blade guard controls. The  
blade guard protects the operator from accidental  
contact with the part of the blade that is not being  
used.  
The star knob on the guide rail allows you to raise  
and lower the blade guard and blade guide  
assembly. Keep the blade guide assembly within  
an inch of the material you are cutting. This will  
provide adequate support for the blade where the  
pressure is greatest. This adjustment is crucial  
for safe operation when cutting through bone!  
The Model G0560 is operated by an ON/OFF  
paddle switch that is clearly labeled on the side of  
the stand.  
This switch is locked out when the key is removed  
to protect against accidental operation (Figure  
31).

Blade Guides  
Blade Tension  
The upper blade guides shown in Figure 33 sup-  
port the blade from moving side-to-side while cut-  
ting. These should be adjusted to approximately  
0.004" (about the thickness of a dollar bill) away  
from the blade and should be behind the gullet of  
the blade teeth.  
The bandsaw blade must be adequately ten-  
sioned so that it will cut straight and not fall off the  
wheel during operation.  
To tension the bandsaw blade:  
1. Disconnect the machine from the power  
source!  
Gullet Line  
2. Remove the thumbscrew that secures the  
upper cover, then pull the upper cover off the  
bandsaw unit to expose the upper wheel.

Blade Tracking  
Changing Blades  
In the event that you need to change blades or  
remove the current blade for cleaning purposes,  
follow the instructions below:  
The bandsaw blade must be properly tracked (or  
centered) on the wheels.  
To track the blade:  
1. Disconnect the machine from the power  
source!  
1. Disconnect the machine from the power  
source!  
2. Remove the force plate from the end of the  
table.  
2. Remove the upper wheel cover from the  
bandsaw.  
3. Slide the table off the rollers and remove it  
from the bandsaw unit.  
3. The blade tracking controls are shown in  
Figure 36. Each setscrew moves that por-  
tion of the wheel in or out. For example, the  
top setscrew controls the top of the wheel,  
the left setscrew controls the left of the wheel  
and so forth.  
4. Remove the stainless steel blade covers.  
5. Move the blade guides away from the blade,  
so the blade can easily slide out and away  
from the blade guide assembly.  
6. Remove the V-belt.  
7. Release the tension from the blade by turn-  
ing the blade tension bolt counterclockwise.  
8. Remove the thumbscrew that holds the  
upper cover in place, then pull the upper  
cover off of the bandsaw unit.  
9. Put on a pair of leather gloves to protect your  
hands from the sharp edges of the blade.  
Carefully remove the blade as shown in  
Figure 37.  
Figure 36. Blade tracking controls.  
3. Adjust the tracking setscrews so that the  
blade remains in the center of the wheel  
when you spin the wheel by hand. After the  
blade appears to be tracking correctly, spin  
the wheel at least three full times to ensure  
that the blade remains centered, and then  
replace the upper wheel cover, turn on the  
machine and test the blade tracking. If there  
are problems, repeat steps 1-3.

10. Blade installation is the opposite of removal.  
Once the blade is installed, remember to ten-  
sion it appropriately, set the blade guides,  
and replace the V-belt.  
Test Run  
Once assembly is complete and adjustments are  
done to your satisfaction, you are ready to start  
the machine.  
Make sure all components that were  
removed have been placed back in their  
original position, are adjusted correctly,  
and all guards are in place before you plug  
the bandsaw back into the power outlet. An  
injury may occur if this caution is ignored.  
Press the START button. Make sure that your fin-  
ger is poised on the STOP button just in case  
there is a problem. The bandsaw should run  
smoothly with little or no vibration or rubbing nois-  
es. Strange or unnatural noises should be inves-  
tigated and corrected before operating the  
machine further.  
Run the Model G0560 for a short time to ensure  
that the moving parts are working properly with  
no excessive vibration. If any problem develops,  
correct it before attempting to use the machine.  
Support Bearing  
The support bearing backs the blade during oper-  
ation. As mentioned in the “Blade Guard” instruc-  
tions, the blade guide assembly (with the support  
bearing) should be lowered to within an inch from  
the material you are cutting to be most efficient.  
If you cannot locate the source of unusual noises,  
immediately contact our service department at  
(570) 546-9663.  
The support bearing shown in Figure 38 should  
be approximately 0.016" away from the back of  
the blade. This is about four thicknesses of a dol-  
lar bill. To adjust the support bearing, loosen the  
support bearing shaft thumbscrew and slide the  
support bearing forward or backward as neces-  
sary.

Cutting Meat  
NOTICE  
The following section was designed to pro-  
vide a basic understanding of the types of  
items that can be cut with the meat-cutting  
bandsaw. This manual is in no way a guide  
to cutting meat, dressing animals or safe  
meat handling techniques. WE STRONGLY  
RECOMMEND that you read books, maga-  
zines or take lessons that specifically deal  
with meat cutting and animal dressing  
applications.  
Your Model G0560 Meat-Cutting Bandsaw will  
cut through any fresh meat and almost all frozen  
meat.  
To cut meat with your bandsaw:  
1. Use the side fence to gauge the thickness of  
your desired cut. The front fence should  
brace the meat. Make sure that either of the  
fences or their rails will not be in line with the  
cut.  
Read the entire manual  
before making any cuts  
with your bandsaw.  
Serious personal injury  
may result if safety or  
operational information  
is not understood or fol-  
lowed.  
2. Turn the power ON and slowly guide the  
meat into the blade by sliding the table. With  
frozen meat, pay close attention to the rate  
at which you feed the meat into the moving  
blade. All cuts should be slow and smooth. If  
you hear the motor slow down or struggle  
with the cut, stop the cut.  
3. Clear the slice you just cut and slide the  
meat toward the side fence. You can make  
successive cuts and the following slices will  
be the same thickness as the first.  
This bandsaw can cut  
your fingers off or cause  
other bodily harm. Use a  
wooden push stick when  
cutting small pieces and  
always properly support  
any item you cut.  
Bacteria from raw meat has been frequently  
linked to illness and even death! Describing  
proper meat handling techniques outside of  
cleaning the bandsaw is beyond the scope of  
this manual. If you are unclear about sanitary  
meat handling practices, contact your local  
Board of Health or the USDA to research the  
proper methods of meat handling.

Cutting Bone  
Grinding Meat  
Besides meat, this bandsaw can cut through  
bone too.  
The meat grinder is great for grinding hamburger  
or sausage. The grinder automatically engages  
when it is mounted to the bandsaw unit.  
When cutting bone:  
To use the meat grinder:  
Feed the bone into the blade slowly. If you hear  
the motor slow down during cutting, stop cutting  
at once. DO NOT twist the blade during the cut.  
The blade may bind or break.  
1. Make sure that all the grinder components  
are cleaned and sanitized thoroughly before  
using them.  
2. Lower the blade guard as low as it will go  
and lock it in place.  
This bandsaw can cut  
your fingers off or cause  
other bodily harm. Use a  
wooden push stick when  
cutting small pieces and  
always properly support  
any item you cut.  
3. Prepare a place for the ground meat to exit  
the grinder.  
4. Drop pieces of meat into the grinder, one at  
a time. Use the pusher to help the meat into  
the spinning auger, but do not overload the  
grinder.  
5. Always clean and sanitize all parts of the  
grinder that have been exposed to meat or  
food particles.  
DO NOT have the meat grinder installed on  
the bandsaw when not in use.  
The meat grinder can  
easily grind your fingers.  
Never use your fingers to  
push meat into the  
grinder. Always use the  
provided pusher and  
remove the meat grinder  
when not in use.

SECTION 7: CLEANING/SANITIZING  
Cleaning the Saw  
Always be as thorough as  
possible when cleaning and  
sanitizing your meat cutting  
bandsaw components. Any  
To clean your bandsaw after use:  
1. Remove the table, the blade guards, the  
fences, and the meat grinder (Figure 39).  
parts  
that  
have  
been  
exposed to raw meat or bone  
may harbor or develop bacte-  
ria that may cause illness or  
death if left uncleaned.  
2. If used, disassemble the meat grinder  
(Figure 40).  
Cleaning the bandsaw  
while it is plugged in may  
cause severe electrical  
shock! Always discon-  
nect the power before  
attempting any cleaning  
or maintenance opera-  
tions, and after cleaning,  
never connect the band-  
saw to a power source  
until it is dry. Failure to  
follow this warning may  
result in severe injury or  
even death.  
Figure 39. Pieces disassembled for cleaning.  
When cleaning with sani-  
tizers, always follow the  
recommendations on the  
manufacturer’s label, and  
make sure that the product  
will do the job for which  
you intend. Never use a  
product that will cause  
exposed surfaces to ren-  
der meat unsafe for human  
consumption. Failure to  
follow this warning may  
lead to sickness or death!

4. Remove the blade from the wheels of the  
bandsaw (as discussed in the “Changing  
Blades” instructions). Sanitize all removed  
pieces from the meat grinder and bandsaw,  
according to the following sanitation instruc-  
tions. If you have access to a dishwasher,  
use it to sanitize the parts that will fit.  
3. Fill a sink with soapy water, submerge the  
item and scrub the entire surface thoroughly.  
4. Using hot water, rinse the newly cleaned  
item in the empty compartment, until all visi-  
ble suds have been removed. Repeat this  
process for all of the items that need to be  
sanitized. If the soapy water starts to get  
hazy, drain and rinse the sink, then fill with  
more soapy water.  
5. Clean the wheels and any other part of the  
bandsaw unit that may have been exposed  
to raw meat with a direct application sanitiz-  
er (read “Proper Sanitation” instructions).  
The items are now ready to be sanitized. Some  
sanitizers require direct applications, while others  
are designed to be diluted in water and used to  
soak the item for a specified period of time. The  
best method for choosing a chemical sanitizer is  
to do the research and determine which product  
is best for your particular situation.  
Proper Sanitation  
One simple sanitizer that can be used for many  
applications is regular bleach. To use bleach as a  
sanitizer, wash, scrub, and rinse your sink. For all  
non-porous surfaces (includes all parts of this  
bandsaw), fill the sink with one tablespoon of  
bleach per gallon of cool water. Do not use  
bleach that contains odor masking agents or sur-  
factants. These have not been proven effective  
for this type of sanitation. Submerge each item for  
two minutes. For large items, submerge each  
side for the specified amount of time until you  
have covered the entire area. Allow to air dry. Do  
not rinse these items after sanitation!  
All surfaces and working parts that have been  
exposed to meat must be properly sanitized after  
each use.  
Dishwashers are a good option because they  
sanitize with heat. For all pieces that will not fit in  
the dishwasher, or if a dishwasher is not avail-  
able, chemical sanitizers like bleach or iodo-  
pher solution are good options. There are also  
other chemical sanitizers on the market that  
serve the same function. When using chemical  
sanitizers, make sure they are designed to do the  
job, and strictly follow the manufacturer’s recom-  
mendations for proper use.  
If your raw meat comes into contact with non-  
porous surfaces (wood), clean as described  
above and soak these surfaces for two minutes in  
a solution of 3 tablespoons of bleach to one gal-  
lon of cool water. Rinse these items well!  
Proper sanitation with chemical sanitizers  
requires a process before the actual sanitizer is  
applied.  
The following is an effective method to pre-  
pare an item for sanitation:  
1. Gather all the items that need to be cleaned.  
Remove the largest particles of foodstuffs  
into a proper garbage container. Rinse all  
items to remove as many of the leftover par-  
ticles as possible. Set the items aside.  
2. Prepare the sink. Wash and scrub all sink  
compartments with dish soap and hot water.  
Rinse these compartments thoroughly.

SECTION 8: MAINTENANCE  
Lubrication  
Disconnect power to the  
machine when perform-  
The wheel bearings are shielded and lubricated  
for life; thus, they require no maintenance  
throughout their lifespan. Occasionally lubricate  
the tracking and height adjustment controls with  
the same food grade lubricant that you use on the  
table.  
ing any adjustments or  
maintenance. Failure to  
do this may result in seri-  
ous personal injury.  
General  
DO NOT lubricate the meat grinder. The meat  
processed in the meat grinder naturally lubricates  
the grinder.  
Regular periodic maintenance on your Model  
G0560 Meat-Cutting Bandsaw ensures its opti-  
mum performance. Make a habit of inspecting  
your bandsaw each time you use it.  
Check for the following conditions and repair or  
replace when necessary.  
V-Belt  
1. Loose mounting bolts.  
2. Worn switch.  
Avoid getting grease or oil on the V-belt or pul-  
leys. Check the V-belt, as part of a monthly  
inspection for proper tension and belt condition.  
Cracking and glazing could result in belt failure.  
Replace the belt if such conditions appear.  
3. Worn or damaged cords and plugs.  
4. Damaged V-belt.  
5. Any other condition that could hamper the  
safe operation of this machine.  
Table & Blade  
Maintain your table and blade with a thin film of  
food grade lubricant that will not support bacteria  
growth and will not become rancid. These quali-  
ties are important because some food grade oils  
will become rancid over time and may cause ill-  
nesses. Make sure that the product you use is  
specifically designed for protecting food process-  
ing machinery. Always follow the manufacturer’s  
recommendations when using their products.
