GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

As with all power tools there is a certain amount of hazard involved with the operator and his use of the machine. Using the machine with the respect and caution demanded as far as safety precautions are concerned will considerably lessen the possibility of personal injury. If, however, normal safety precautions are overlooked or completely ignored, personal injury to the operator can develop.

1.FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING THE SAW; Learn the saw's application andlimitationsaswellasthespecifichazardspeculiar to it.

2.WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets or other jewellery which may get caught in moving parts of the saw.

3.WEAR PROTECTIVE HAIR COVERING to contain long hair.

4.WEAR SAFETY SHOES with non-slip soles.

5.WEAR SAFETY GLASSES. Everyday glasses have only impact resistant lenses. They are no safety glasses.

6.WEAR FACE MASK OR DUST MASK if operation is dusty.

7.BE ALERT and think clearly. Never operate power tools when tired, intoxicated or when taking medications that cause drowsiness.

8.KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered work areas and work benches invite accidents.

9.DO NOT USE POWER TOOLS IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do not use power tools in damp or wet locations. Do not expose power tools to rain.

10.THE WORK AREA SHOULD BE PROPERLY LIGHTED.

11.A PROPER ELECTRICAL OUTLET SHOULD BE AVAILABLE for the machine. The plug should be plugged directly into a properly grounded outlet.

12.EXTENSION CORDS MUST HAVE AN EARTH LEAD and all three leads must be of the correct cross section/gauge.

13.Keep visitors at a safe distance from the work area.

14.KEEP CHILDREN OUT OF THE WORKPLACE. Make workshop childproof. Use padlocks, master switches and remove starter keys to prevent any unintentional use of power tools.

15.PERMANENTLYMOUNTYOURBANDSAWbefore performing cutting operations.

16.KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.

17.MAKE ALL ADJUSTMENTS AND SET-UPS, such as tilting the table or adjusting the blade guards and blades guides, WITH THE POWER OFF.

18.ADJUST BLADE TENSION, upper and lower blades guides, thrust bearings and blade tracking correctly.

19.DOORS AND BLADE GUARD must be in place and securely fastened when performing saw operations.

20.SECURELY LOCK ALL ADJUSTABLE PARTS so they can not loosen while sawing. This will prevent distraction from sawing operations.

21.PLACE THE BLADE GUARD to within 5 mm above the material to be cut.

22.USE THE PROPER BLADE TYPE AND SIZE for the material being cut.

23.ALWAYS KEEP HANDS AND FINGERS AWAY from the saw blade, especially at the end of a cut.

24.DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance.

25.HOLD MATERIAL FIRMLY and feed into the blade at a moderate speed.

26.USE A PUSH STICK OR A PIECE OF SCRAP WOOD to do the pushing and guiding when sawing small pieces which require the fingers to be close to the blade.

27.DO NOT SAW STOCK that does not have a flat surface unless a suitable support is used.

28.ALWAYS STOP THE MACHINE before removing scrap pieces from the table.

29.STOP THE MACHINE if the material is to be backed out of an uncompleted cut.

30.WHEN SAWING CURVES, make relief cuts to allow for removal of scrap material. This will help to prevent undue twisting or bending of the saw blade. The relief cuts are made before starting the curved cut.

31.NEVER LEAVE A TOOL UNATTENDED. Turn the power off and do not leave saw until it comes to a complete stop.

32.DISCONNECT POWER. Turn switch off and disconnect power whenever the band saw is not in use.
