IMPORTANT!
WHEN HANDLING NARROWER WORKPIECES,
IT IS ESSENTIAL TO USE A PUSH STICK. THE PUSH STICK
MUST ALWAYS BE KEPT CLOSE AT HAND.
Free Hand Cuts
Push Sticks
1
Lower the blade guide to the
work piece.
2 Switch on the saw.
The push stick protects against
contact with the saw blade.
Use the stick to push the
workpiece through the saw
blade.
The push stick can be hung on the
hook at the side of the unit when not
in use.
3
Hold the work piece securely
on the table and guide slowly
through the blade.
4
Freehanded cuts should be
made at low speed so that
you can guide the blade
along the required line.
6
In the case of curves which
are too tight for the blade to
cut correctly, it can help to
make a series of close-lying
cuts at right angles to the
curved line. When you saw
the radius the material will
simply drop off.
5
It often pays to first cut off surplus curves and corners up to
about 6mm from the cutting line.
One of the most outstanding features of a band saw is the ease with
which it allows you to make curved cuts.
