To Operate The Bandsaw:
1. Before starting the Bandsaw make sure
all adjustments are properly made and
all of the guards are in place.
2.
Before turning on the power
, turn the
Belt Pulley (23B) by hand to make
sure there is no binding of moving parts.
3. Keep the Upper Blade Guide Assembly
(See Figure W) down as close to the
material being cut as possible.
4. When tur ning on the Bandsaw, allow the
machine to reach its full speed before
cutting the material.
5. Do not force the material into the Saw Blade. Light contact with the Saw Blade
will permit easier following of the line and prevent undue friction, heating and
work-hardening of the Saw Blade at its back edge.
6. Keep the Saw Blade sharp for easier forward pressure when cutting.
7. Move the material slowly and steadily against the Saw Blade.
8. Avoid twisting the Saw Blade when attempting to turn sharp corners.
Remember to saw around corners.
