RIDGID BS1400 14" (35.6 cm) Band Saw Key features: o Powerful 3/4 HP Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled (TEFC) motor o Wide depth of cut o Heavy-duty construction o Micro-adjust blade guides BS1400 satisfies users with power, cutting capacity and durable construction (Elyria, Ohio) The RIDGID® 14" Band Saw (Model BS1400) features a durable, heavy-duty Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled (TEFC) induction motor for easy cutting through wide stock material. "Woodworking professionals will appreciate the wide depth of cut on this saw," said Jeff Drake, spokesperson for RIDGID. "It also provides a powerful motor and durable construction, which are among the most important features to professionals when it comes to a band saw." The 3/4 horsepower TEFC induction motor runs smoothly and quietly, with enough power to cut through stock up to 6" thick. Professionals have the option of adding a riser block accessory to the saw to obtain up to 12" thick cutting capacity. The BS1400 includes upper and lower micro-adjust blade guides for superior blade support to promote more precise cutting. A tilting table allows for 45° right to 10° left bevel cutting. The heavy-duty construction features a cast iron table and frame to minimize vibration. Drive wheels are precision balanced and made of lightweight, durable cast aluminum. Wheel covers and included leg stand are constructed from heavy gauge steel. A tire cleaning brush prevents the drive wheel from accumulating dust on its rubber surface that could affect blade tracking. A built-in dust collection port allows the user to attach any common 2-1/2" vac system hose if desired. Controls are designed to be user-friendly, with handles and knobs covered in comfortable Sof-Touch(TM) rubber over mold. Indicators and switches are highly visible, and the paddle on/off switch has safety lock-out protection. The BS1400 also includes a 93-1/2" saw blade, leg stand and owner's manual.
