• Head down feed is gravity fed and controlled by way of an infinitely variable flow control valve (except Zip 22). The flow control allows for presetting the down feed rate and retaining this setting at the end of the cut, to minimize dead air cutting.
• Heavy cast head frame for rigidity and roller and carbide guides for optimum cutting quality. Easily set the most appropriate blade and head descend speed according to the stock material, size and shape for maximum efficiency.
• Drive system. Direct drive means full power to the drive wheel without horse power loss through belts and pulleys. Low maintenance without belts and pulleys.

• Multimode features allow three different cutting modes (except Zip 22): 1. Manual mode 2. Manual mode with hydraulic down feed regulation 3. Automatic down feed
• Quick set cam-activated vises. Adjustable vise with handwheel for initial set up and quick release cam lever for repeat cutting. Vise on the Trad 300 model is gib adjustable.
• Miter up to 60 degrees to the right, and anywhere in between. The head, NOT the material, rotates for angle cutting. (Trad 301 will miter up to 45 degrees left.)

• Fabricated oversize steel base
• Vises Quick set cam action type
• Combination guides  Roller and carbide
• CE certified electrical  Low voltage controls, thermo overload, low voltage coil
• Mechanical blade tensioning Blade breakage shut off (except Zip 22)
• Stock stop
• Multimode feature (except Zip 22)

• Coolant Pump Electric with flow control
• Head feed  Hydraulic regulated head down feed rate (except Zip 22)
• Direct drive gear box
• Door interlocks and end-of-cut shut off
• Adjustable manual head return
• Material support roller

• Heavy duty, low production saw, comes with one standard Bi-metal blade.
• Manual down feed with manual return. (Spring assist)
• Powerful, flame tempered, manual clamping vise. Hand wheel adjusted with quick release cam lever for rapid vise opening and closing action. The vise clamps material firmly.
• Ergonomic designed for operators comfort and control
• Gearbox is direct bolted to the bow for less vibration, and positive drive with 40:1 gear ratio. Casting are filled and sanded for added cosmetic value
• Gear box is direct driven via steel and bronze gears, no belts and pulleys  to contend with
• CE Certified electronics. Low voltage switches.  Thermo over load protection, low voltage protection with low voltage trigger motor start switch and blade cover interlock
• Miters up to 60 Degrees right.  Mitering set up is fast and precise with scribed scale for all angles on head pivot. The head turns-the material doesnt.
• Tapered roller bearing are used in the pivot point of the machine for  smooth and dependable operation
• Horizontally mounted guide arms for more rigidity and straightest cuts. Guides are rollers with carbide inserts that are fully adjustable and replaceableBlade tensioning is done mechanically with preset, this takes the guess work out of achieving proper blade tensioning
• Electric coolant pump and self contained coolant system
• Steel fabricated base
• One gallon of coolant, and stock stop gauge

Unique design makes this bandsaw a real problem solver and an exceptional value.These Johnson mitering horizontal bandsaws will miter up to 60 degrees to the right, and anywhere in between. They also feature head down feed, multimode cutting, quick set cam-activated vises, direct drive, and a heavy cast head frame.
