CONNECTING THE DUST COLLECTOR

Control wood dust and chips in a confined area and guard against all possible ignition sources. Failure to do so can result in fire and cause personal injury or death.

Connect the dust extraction equipment to the port on the back of the band saw.

MOUNTING THE SAW TO A WORKBENCH

The band saw has four predrilled holes in the base for mounting to a workbench. It is best to attach the band saw to a firm, stable surface at a convenient working height. A workbench is ideal.

1.Drill four holes in the workbench to match the four holes in the base of the saw.

2.Attach the band saw to the work bench using bolts (inserted from the top), lock washers and nuts.

OPENING THE HOUSING DOORS

The upper and lower housing doors protect the operator and shield the moving parts of the band saw drive and power source. The doors must remain closed while the band saw is in use.

Always remove power to the saw, by turning the power switch off and then unplugging it, before making any adjustments. Failure to do so can result in severe injury or death.
