MAINTENANCE

OPERATION (cont.)

Sawing 

Always guide the workpiece with both hands, holding flat on the table (19) in order to
prevent the blade (5) from jamming.

Feed the workpiece at a uniform speed that enables the blade (5) to cut through the
material without difficult and without blocking.

Always use the Rip fence (21) on all cuts for which they are intended.

Always aim at making a complete cut in one pass rather then a stop-and-go operation
requiring the workpiece to be withdrawn.

Curve cuts which are too tight for the blade (5) to cut correctly, it can help to make a
series of close-lying cuts right angles to the curve line.

CAUTION! 

The When handling narrower workpieces , it is essential to use a the push

stick (31). 

WARNING! 

To prevent serious injury from accidental operation:

Turn the Power Switch of the bandsaw to its “OFF” position and unplug the
bandsaw from its electrical outlet before performing any inspection, maintenance,
or cleaning procedures.

Keep the ventilation vents of the tool clean at all times, if possible, prevent foreign
matter from entering the vents.

After each use, blow air through the tool housing to ensure it is free from all dust
particles which may build up. Build up of dust particles may cause the tool to overheat
and fail.

If the enclosure of the tool requires cleaning do not use solvents but a moist soft cloth
only. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into 
a liquid.

Note: 

Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries caused by the

repair of the tool by an unauthorised person or by mishandling of the tool.
