The Inca Euro 260 is a popular small band saw, with model number 342.186. What it lacks in modern features, it makes up for in reliability and accuracy. Mostly used for dimensioning smaller pieces and fine work, not resawing large planks.

Inca Major was the first small saw bench, the Inca Euro 260 bandsaw was the first small bandsaw and Automatic the first planer/jointer combined. Inca were innovators, and the rest of the market copied these machines but failed to emulate the precise workings of Inca machines.

Dec 26, 2020 Inca Band Saws. Inca made three band saws, the Inca Euro 260 (US model 310/320/330/340), the larger Inca Expert 500 (US model 710), and the much more unknown, and smallest, Inca Euro 205. The Euro 260 can be found more often on the second-hand market today than the Expert 500. Inca 340 Bandsaw / Euro 260 Bandsaw Online Manual Inca 340 Manual. Inca 510 Jointer Thicknesser Online Manual 510 343.190.01 Hobelmasch. Jan 23, 2005 Inca bandsaw, model 710. Where can I get a manual? I understand that the company that makes this unit is having financial issues, and parts are hard to come.

The mitre gauge is rare, and interchangeable with the one of the Inca Universal, as both use the dovetailed mitre slot.

The Inca Euro 260 can be found quite regularly on the second-hand market. The Inca Expert 500 is its larger brother.

Tip: If your Inca bandsaw is missing the rip fence, Axminster in the UK sells one that fits perfectly (I’m using this myself). You just need to drill some holes in the rail to fit it to the table.

Reversed Saw Blade

One thing to note is that thesaw blade is reversed compared to most modern band saw blades. Mention this when you are ordering your new blade and the shop will weld it the other way around.

Parts and Blades: One part that often needs to be replaced is the rubber tire around the wheel (tends to dry out). One possible replacement is a urethane tire, which can be found here.
A good source for bandsaw blades in Europe is TuffSaws, which sells many different blades that will fit the Inca.

I have taken an interest in tools that are no longer in production. This has meant going to great lengths to get the instruction manuals for these machines. I will continue to update this online manual section as I get more machines and their related manuals. The goal is to have an online reference so you good folks won't have to waste as much time as I did finding info on these machines. Enjoy.
