WARNING!
Before performing any adjustment or maintenance task
and before changing the blade you must switch off the
machine, disconnect it from the power supply and wait
for the saw blade to stop.
CAUTION
Connect the bandsaw to the electrical energy and start
it only after checking that the machine is fastened,
that the workbench is assembled and adjusted, that
saw blade tensioning is correct and that all safety and
protection devices are perfectly efficient.

• Start = push the green button (25).
• Stop = push the red button (26).
In case of an interruption of the electrical energy, a
“minimum voltage” relay inside the switch stops the
machine. This prevents from the start of the machine
when the electrical energy recovers. You must press
the green button to re-start the saw that has stopped.
