cated in the instructions (see “Changing the Saw Blade”,
page 16).

PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Operate in a well ventilated area. Keep the floor area
around the Metal Bandsaw level and free of slippery
substances or other tripping hazards.
2. Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles to protect your
eyes from sparks and metal chips. Use hearing protec-
tion to protect yourself from hearing loss.
3. People with pacemakers should consult their
physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in close
proximity to pacemakers could cause pacemaker inter-
ference or pacemaker failure.
4. Wear work gloves when handling saw blades. DO
NOT wear gloves, neckties, jewelry, or loose clothing

making any adjustments or repair tasks. Never adjust
the Metal Bandsaw or the workpiece while the saw is
running.

PREPARING THE METAL BANDSAW
When transporting the Metal Bandsaw, use the trans-
portation handle and roll the assembled saw with the
wheels. Never carry the device by its guards or its
accessories.
1. Examine the Metal Bandsaw for any damaged or
missing parts. Replace or repair damaged parts before
operation. Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and
other fasteners are properly tightened.
SECURE YOUR WORKPIECE
1. To avoid blade binding or loss of control, always se-
cure the workpiece to a stable platform, ensuring that
body exposure is minimized. Use clamps to secure the
workpiece. Never perform any operation freehand.
