SAFETY PRECAUTIONS BEFORE OPERATION!!
The operation of power tools involves a certain amount of hazard for the operator. Before attempting regular
work we recommend you get the feel of operations using scrap lumber to check settings. Read entire
instructions before you start to cut work piece. Always pay attention to safety precautions to avoid personal
injury!
OPERATION
Band saw includes ripping and crosscutting, plus a few other standard operations of a fundamental nature.
The following methods feature safety. As with all power tools there is a certain amount of hazard involved
with the operation and use of tool. Using the tool with the respect and caution demanded as far as safety
precautions are overlooked or completely ignored, personal injury to the operator can develop. It is good
practice to make trial cuts using scrap material when setting up your operations.
CROSSCUTTING
Crosscutting is the process of cutting across the grain of wood,
for plywood and other processed wood, crosscutting simply
means cutting across the width of material.
1. mark the work piece on the edge where you want to begin the
cut.
2. adjust the blade guide assembly to the correct height and
make sure the miter gauge is set to 90.
3. move the fence out of the way, place the work piece evenly
against the miter gauge.
4.hold the work piece against the miter gauge and line up the
mark with the blade.
5. After all safety precautions have been met, turn the band saw on, Fig 16
slowly feed the work piece into the blade and continue the cut till
the blade is all the way through the work piece ,fig 17 shows a 90
crosscutting operation.
RIPPING
Ripping is the process of cutting with the grain of the wood stock,
for plywood and other processed wood, ripping simply means
cutting down the length of the work piece.
1. Adjust the fence to match the width of the cut on your work
piece and lock the fence in place.
2. Adjust the blade guide assembly to the correct height.
3. After all safety precautions have been met ,turn the band saw
on, slowly feed the work piece into the blade is completely
through the work piece.Fig18 shows a typical ripping operation. Fig 17
Note. If you are cutting narrow pieces, use a push stick to protect your fingers!
