BASIC BANDSAW OPERATION - VERTICAL POSITION

1.WARNING!

Always wear ANSI-approved safety impact eye goggles when operating the Bandsaw. Never wear loose fitting clothin.

When operating the machine, keep the Bandsaw Blade enclosure closed.

Do not plug the Power Cord into an electrical outlet until all necessary adjustments (as previously discussed in this manual) have been made.

Cut only flat workpieces when the Bandsaw is in its vertical position.

Never attempt to cut pipes or other round objects with the Bandsaw in its vertical position.

Before cutting, turn on the Bandsaw and check for excessively loose Saw Blade (251) tension or machine vibration. If this is found, turn off the Bandsaw and correct the problem before using.

Always keep hands and fingers safely away from the cutting area.

2.Raise the Saw Head Assembly to its full vertical position, making sure it locks in place by turning the Cylinder (216) to its “OFF” position. (See Figure S.)

3.Check to make sure the Motor Toggle Switch (750S4) and Coolant Pump Toggle Switch (750S2) are both in their “OFF” positions. (See Figure S.)

4.Plug the Power Cable (500) into the nearest 120 volt, grounded, electrical outlet. NOTE: If the Bandsaw has been re-wired to operate on a 240 volt system then plug the Power Cord into the nearest 240 volt, grounded, electrical outlet.
