Dust Collection
If this band saw is operated indoors it is recommended to have it connected to a dust collector. The suction
connector, supplied with the machine, has to be fitted to the dust ejection port of the saw for this purpose. The
diameter of the suction connector is 60 mm.
Caution! Wood dust and chips, together with an ignition source and the oxygen in the ambient air, can cause
fires and explosions, injuries and allergies.
- Workmen working in operations processing oak or beech timber where found to develop more often cancer
of the mucous membrane of the nose (adenocarciome of the inner nose) then other workers.

Experience shows that skin contact with oak or beech dust does not cause cancer
2.0 Band Saw Settings
2.1 Changing and Setting the Saw Blade
This band saw is factory-equipped with a general
purpose wood cutting blade, the blade set. To change
the blade, remove the wing nut and screw from the table.
Then slacken the blade tension by turning the hand
wheel on top of the upper wheel housing.
Fit new blade and tension lightly. The blade
should run in the center of the rubber lined band
saw wheels or else it may jump of. To check
tracking, turn upper wheel by hand. If required,
adjust tracking with the knurled handle at the rear
of the upper wheel housing.
