8. Make sure that the saw blade teeth point downward toward the table.
9. Adjust the upper blade guard so that it is just clearing the material being cut.
10. Make sure that the blade has been properly tensioned and tracked.
11. Stop the machine before removing the scrap piece from the table.
12. Always keep your hands and fingers away from the blade.
13. Make sure that you use the proper size and type of blade.
14. Hold the work piece firmly against the table. Do not attempt to saw stock that does not have a
flat surface facing down unless a suitable support is used.
15. Use a push stick at the end of a cut. This is the most dangerous time because the cut is
complete, and the blade is exposed. Push sticks are commercially available.
16. Hold the wood firmly and feed it into the blade at a moderate speed.
17. Turn off the machine if you must back the material out of an uncompleted or jammed cut.
Testing the Saw
1. Close the doors.
2. Check that the red Emergency Stop Button is in the fully out position.
3. Check that the machine is clear of all tools and other loose objects.
4. Check that all the adjusting and locking handles are tight.
5. Check that there is no blade installed; it is far safer to test the machine without a
blade fitted.
6. Connect the bandsaw to the electricity supply.
7. Start the bandsaw by pressing the “I” start button.
8. The lower flywheel is now turning.
9. Now is the time to check that the Stop Switch is functioning correctly.
10. With the machine running (no blade installed), operate the “O” Stop Switch by
pressing in, toward the machine. The motor should have the power turned off and
slowing down.
11. If the switches fail to operate correctly, do not use the machine until the fault has
been corrected.
12. With the motor running, press the red emergency stop button. The motor should
have the power turned off and slowing down.
13. With the motor running, press the foot brake pedal. The motor should have the power
disconnected and come to a stop.
Should the bandsaw fail the test, it must not be used until the fault has been corrected.
