be manually titled up to 45, to the right and up to 5, to the left.  Power
is fed from the 220 volt, 60 cycle motor through a variable speed pulley to
the  three-speed transmission (figure 5 on page 8).

bandsaw machine has an integral butt welder and grinder.

Uses of Bandsaw Machines
The bandsaw machine is used for external and internal sawing.  With the use
of attachments, the  bandsaw machine can also serve a variety of other
functions.
Band files and polishing bands can be used in place of the
bandsaw  blade  for  filing  and  polishing  operations.
A  disk  cutting
attachment permits the cutting of true circles.
An angular blade guide
attachment is furnished with most bandsaw machines.  This attachment twists
the bandsaw blade so that large or long workpieces that would not normally
clear the bandsaw machine column can be cut.  A miter guide attachment can
be used to guide the workpiece at any convenient angle.
