SAW BLADE SAFETY
1. Always wear protective gloves when handling saw
blades.
2. Only use blades with correct size and type for both
your band saw and your workpiece.
• See the blade specifications on page 3.
• Make sure the blade is installed in the proper direc-
tion.
3. Never use damaged or deformed saw blades. Only
use sharp blades.
4. Install the saw blade in the correct orientation indi-
cated in the instructions.
5. Keep hands out of path of saw blade. Never use your
hands to remove scrap pieces.
6. Never reach around saw blade or reach in back of the
saw blade.
7. The use of accessories or attachments not recom-
mended by the manufacturer may result in a risk of per-
sonal injury.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Operate in a well ventilated area. Keep the floor area
around the band saw level and free of slippery sub-
stances or other tripping hazards.
2. Wear ANSI Z87.1-approved safety goggles to protect
your eyes from saw dust. Use hearing protection to pro-
tect 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
while operating the saw.
5. Saw dust is harmful to your health. Use NIOSH-ap-
proved dust masks or other respiratory protection dur-
ing operation and cleaning.
6. Always turn off and unplug the metal band saw be-
fore making any adjustments or repair tasks. Never ad-
just the metal band saw or the workpiece while the saw
is running.
PREPARING THE METAL BAND SAW
1. When transporting the metal band saw, never carry
the device by its guards or its accessories.
2. Examine the metal band saw 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.
3. To avoid injury from unexpected movement, secure
the machine to a bench before operating.
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.
2. Ensure that work is correctly supported. Supports
must be placed under the workpiece on both sides,
close to the line of cut and near the edge of the work-
piece.
3. Use extra caution with very large, very small, or awk-
wardly-shaped workpieces. Small pieces should be se-
cured with clamps. Do not hold small pieces with your
hand.
4. Never hand-hold a workpiece that is too small to be
clamped, as it can be launched away and cause inju-
ry. Use proper support and guides to secure the small
workpiece.
