4 ADVICE ON USING YOUR BANDSAW
4.1 Recommendations and advice for using the
machine
The machine has been designed to cut metal
building
materials of various shapes and profiles for use in
workshops, turner's shops and general mechanical
structural work.
Only one operator is needed
to use the machine, that
must stand as shown in the picture.
- Before
starting
each
cutting
operation,
ensure
that
the
part
is firmly
clamped
in
the
vice
and
that
the
end
is
suitably
supported.
- These
figures
below
show
examples
of
suitable
clamping
of
different section
bars,
bearing
in
mind
the
cutting
capacities
of
the
machine
in
order
to
achieve
a
good
efficiency
and
blade
durability.
- Do
not
use
blades
of
a different
size
from
those
stated
in
the machine
specifications.
- If
the
blade
gets
stuck
in
the
cut,
press the cycle start
switch or emergency button immediately to switch
off
the
machine,
open
the
vice
slowly,
remove
the
part
and
check
that
the
blade
or
its
teeth
are
not broken.
If
they
are
broken,
change
the
blade.
- Before
carrying
out
any
repairs
on
the
machine,
consult
the dealer.
5 ADJUSTING YOUR MACHINE
5.1 Blade tension assembly
The
ideal
tension
of
the
blade
is
achieved
rotating
the
handwheel until
the needle reaches the poper blade
tension on the tension gauge (A).
The machine will not operate if the microswitch does
not actuate by contacting the touch plate (C).
