Additional Safety Instructions for Bandsaws
USE this and other machinery with caution
and respect. Always consider safety first,
as it applies to your individual working
conditions. No list of safety guidelines can
be complete—every shop environment is
different. Failure to follow guidelines could
result in serious personal injury, damage
to equipment or poor work results.
READ and understand this
entire instruction manual
before using this machine.
Serious personal injury
may occur if safety and
operational information is
not understood and fol-
lowed. DO NOT risk your
safety by not reading!
1. BLADE CONDITION.
Do not operate with dull, cracked or badly worn blade. Inspect blades for cracks
and missing teeth before each use.
2. HAND PLACEMENT.
Never position fingers or thumbs in line with the cut. Hands could be crushed
by falling machine components or cut by the blade.
3. ENTANGLEMENT HAZARDS.
Do not operate this bandsaw without blade guard in place. Otherwise,
loose clothing, jewelry, long hair and work gloves can be drawn into working parts.
4. BLADE REPLACEMENT.
When replacing blades, make sure teeth face toward the workpiece. Wear
gloves to protect hands and safety glasses to protect eyes, and always disconnect from power.
5. WORKPIECE HANDLING.
Always support the workpiece with table, vise, or other support fixture.
Flag long pieces to avoid a tripping hazard. Never hold the workpiece with your hands during a
cut.
6. LOSS OF STABILITY.
Unsupported workpieces may jeopardize machine stability and cause the
machine to tip and fall, which could cause serious injury.
7. POWER INTERRUPTION.
Unplug machine after power interruption. Machines without magnetic
switches can start up after power is restored.
8. FIRE HAZARD.
Use EXTREME CAUTION if cutting magnesium. Using the wrong cutting fluid will lead
to chip fire and possible explosion.
9. CUTTING FLUID SAFETY.
Always follow manufacturer’s cutting fluid safety instructions. Pay par-
ticular attention to contact, contamination, inhalation, storage and disposal warnings. Spilled cut-
ting fluid is a slipping hazard and a toxicity hazard.
10. ATTENTION TO WORK AREA.
Never leave a machine running and unattended. Pay attention to the
actions of others in the area to avoid unintended accidents.
11. HEARING PROTECTION & HAZARDS.
Noise generated by blade and workpiece vibration, material
handling, and power transmission can cause permanent hearing loss over time and interfere with
communication and audible signals. Always wear hearing protection.
12. HOT SURFACES.
Due to friction, the workpiece, chips, and some machine components can be hot
enough to burn you.
