2. Product
The industrial band saw is ideal for heavy duty, high speed cutting efficiency and is well suited to a full range of applications
from small home butchers to restaurants, large butchers, supermarkets and meat and fish factories.
The body, frame and cover of the saw are made out of Stainless Steel for durability, anti
-
rust properties and ease of cleaning.
Fitted to the saw is a thickness adjustment plate, to adjust slicing thickness and prevent any trembling of the blades. The blade
also runs through guides to allow for straight cuts. There are two work platforms: fixed and sliding table tops.
For safety purposes there is a safety knob on the body cover. At the top of the saw is a tension adjustment knob so that the
workers can easily maintain the proper tension of the saw if necessary.
In order to minimize the heat from the motor, there is a ventilation on the motor cover.
There is an emergency stop beside the start switch. There is an emergency safety switch in the event the door is opened while
operating which will shut down operation.

Failure to follow these rules may result in serious personal injury.
