SETUP
3.
Personal safety
a.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are
tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
b.
Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection.
Safety
equipment
such as dust mask, non‑skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to power source and/or battery pack, picking
up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools
with your finger on the switch or energizing power
tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part
of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g.
If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used.
Use of
these devices can reduce dust‑related hazards.
h.
Only use safety equipment that has been
approved by an appropriate standards agency.
Unapproved safety equipment may not
provide adequate protection. Eye protection
must be ANSI‑approved and breathing
protection must be NIOSH‑approved for
the specific hazards in the work area.
4.
Power tool use and care
a.
Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b.
Do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c.
Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions
to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e.
Maintain power tools. check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed. Use of the
power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5.
Service
a.
Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts.
This will ensure that
the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Bandsaw Safety Warnings
1.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Cutting accessories contacting a “live” wire
may make exposed metal parts of the power tool
“live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
2.
Never leave the Bandsaw unattended while
it is running
. Do not put the Bandsaw down
until the blade comes to a complete stop.
3. Before each use, make sure the Tension Handle is
in the tightened position (making the blade taut).
4.
cutting Material
. Make sure cutting
material is securely fastened down before
operating the Bandsaw. Work slowly and
carefully when cutting corners, sharp edges,
ragged welds, etc., to avoid snagging.
5. Cutting material and the motor housing can
get very hot during operation. Stop work
until unit cools down to safe temperature.
Spray a coolant or water onto the blade.
6. Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool.
These carry important safety information.
If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor
Freight Tools for a replacement.
