RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
1. Do not operate the bandsaw when tired, distracted
or under the effects of drugs, alcohol or any medI-
cation that impairs reflexes or alertness.
2. The work area should be well lit, clean and free
of debris.
3. Keep children and visitors at a safe distance when
the bandsaw is in operation; do not permit them to
operate the bandsaw.
4. Childproof and tamper proof your shop and all
machinery with locks, master electrical switches and
switch keys, to prevent unauthorized or unsupervised
use.
5. STAY ALERT! Give your work your undivided attention.
Even a momentary distraction can lead to serious
injury.
6. Fine particulate dust is a carcinogen that can be
hazardous to health. Work in a well-ventilated area.
Wear face, eye, ear, respiratory and body
protection devices.
7. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, bracelets,
necklaces or other jewelry while the bandsaw is in
operation.
8. Be sure that adjusting wrenches, tools, drinks and
other clutter are removed from the machine and/or
the table surface before operating.
9. Keep hands well away from the blade and all
moving parts. Use a brush, not hands, to clear away
chips and dust.
10. Adjust and position the blade guard as close as
possible to the workpiece.
11. Adjust blade tension and tracking before starting to
cut.
12. Blade teeth must point down toward the table.
13. Be sure that the blade has gained full operating
speed before starting to cut.
14. Always use a clean, properly sharpened blade.
Dirty or dull blades are unsafe and can lead to
accidents.
15. Use suitable workpiece support if the workpiece
does not have a flat surface.
16. Do not work on long stock without adequate
support on the out feed end of the table.
17. Do not push or force stock into the blade. The band-
saw will perform better and more safely when work-
ing at the rate for which it was designed.
18. Avoid working from awkward or off balance posi-
tions. Do not overreach and keep both feet on floor.
19. Keep guards in place and in working order. If a
guard must be removed for maintenance or clean-
ing be sure it is properly re-attached before using
the saw again.
20. Never leave the machine unattended while it is run--
ning or with the power on.
21. Use of parts and accessories NOT recommended
by
General
®
International
may result in equipment
malfunction or risk of injury.
22. Never stand on machinery. Serious injury could re-
sult if the tool is tipped over or if the blade is
unintentionally contacted.
23. Always disconnect the saw from the power
source before servicing or changing accessories
such as blades, or before performing any mainte-
nance or cleaning, or if the machine will be left
unattended.
24. Make sure that the switch is in the “OFF” position
before plugging in the power cord.
25. Make sure the machine is properly grounded. If
equipped with a 3-prong plug it should be used with
a three-pole receptacle. Never remove the third
prong.
26. Do not use this bandsaw for other than its intended
use. If used for other purposes, General® Interna-
tional
disclaims any real or implied warranty and
holds itself harmless for any injury, which may result

To help ensure safe operation, please take a moment to learn the machine’s applications and limitations,
as well as potential hazards. General
