In order for the upper blade guard to provide adequate protection against contact
with the band saw blade, it must always
be set as close as possible against the
workpiece (max. distance 3 mm).
20
22
Lower blade guard
The lower blade guard (21) protects
against inadvertent contact with the
band saw blade. When closing the lower
housing door, the lower blade guard
swings over the band saw blade.
The lower blade guard must always be
installed during operation.
Housing doors
The housing doors (22) protect against
contact with the rotating parts inside the
machine.
To lock or unlock the housing doors, turn
the locks a quarter turn with a suitable
slotted bit screwdriver.
The lower housing door is equipped with
a door catch (23). The door catch prevents the closing of the lower housing
door without the chip case (24) being in
place.
21
17
ENGLISH
23
24
Both housing doors must be closed
while the machine is in use.
Electronic motor brake
The wear-free electronic motor brake
(inside the saw, not illustrated) causes
the band saw blade to stop within 10
seconds after the saw is turned OFF.
If the time to standstill exceeds 10 seconds the ON/OFF switch is faulty and
needs to be replaced by a qualified electrician without delay.
4. Special product features

7.6 Dust collector connection
Danger!
A
Some types of saw dust (e.g. of
oak, beech and ash wood) can cause
cancer when inhaled: always use a
dust collector when working indoors
(required air speed at the saw's suction connector ≥ 20 m/s).
Caution!
A
Operation without a dust col-
lector is only possible:
− outdoors;
− for short-term operation
(up to 30 minutes maximum);
− with dust respirator.
− If no dust collector is used chips
will accumulate, which need to be
removed periodically.
Connect dust collector or industrial vacuum with a suitable adaptor to the dust
extraction port.
7.7 Band saw blade tensioning
Danger!
A
Too much tension can cause
the band saw blade to break.Too little
tension can cause the driven band
saw wheel to slip and the band saw
blade to stop.
1. Raise upper blade guide fully (see
“Operation”).
2. Check tension by pushing with a fin-
ger, halfway between table and
upper blade guide, against the side
of the blade. The blade should flex
not more than 1-2 mm.

20
ENGLISH
Position power supply cable so it
does not interfere with the work and
is not damaged.
Protect power supply cable from heat,
aggressive liquids and sharp edges.
Use only rubber jacketed cable of sufficient lead cross section.
Do not pull on power supply cable to
unplug.
A
Changing the direction of rota
tion (3-phase motor only):
Depending on phase sequence the
band saw blade may turn in the wrong
direction. This can cause the workpiece being tossed away when
attempting to cut. Therefore, always
check direction of rotation after every
connection to the power supply.
If the direction of rotation is incorrect,
the electrical connection must be
changed by a qualified electrician!
1. When the saw is assembled and all
safety devices are installed, connect
it to the power supply.
2. Start saw briefly and turn OFF
immediately again.
3. Check the band saw blade's direc-
tion of rotation: in the cutting area
it must run from the top downwards.
4. If the band saw blade turns in the
wrong correction, unplug the power
supply cable at the saw.
5. Have the electrical connection
changed by a qualified electrician!
8. Operation
Danger!
A
To reduce the risk of personal
injury as much as possible, the following safety recommendations
should be observed when operating
the saw.
Use personal protection gear:
− dust respirator;
− hearing protection;
− safety goggles.
Cut only one workpiece at a time.
Always hold the workpiece down on
the table.
Do not jam the workpiece.
Do not attempt to stop the band saw
blade by pushing the workpiece
against its side.
If the type of work requires, use the
following:
− push stick – if distance rip fence
– band saw blade ≤ 120 mm;
− work support – for long stock,
which would otherwise fall off the
table on completion of the cut;
− dust collector;
− an appropriate jig when cutting
round stock, to keep it from turning;
− a suitable guide for firm support
when cutting thin stock layed on
edge.
Before starting work, check to see
that the following are in proper working order:
− band saw blade;
− upper and lower blade guard.
Replace damaged parts immediately.
Assume correct work position (the
band saw blade's teeth must point
towards the operator).
Never cut several workpieces at the
same time – and also no bundles containing several individual pieces. Risk
of personal injury if individual pieces
are caught by the saw blade uncontrolled.
Drawing-in/trapping hazard!
c
Do not wear loose clothing,
jewellery, or gloves, which may get
caught and wound up by revolving
machine parts.
Contain long hair with a hairnet.
Never cut stock to which ropes,
cords, strings, cables and wires are
attached or which contain such materials.
Upper blade guide adjustment
The height of the upper blade guide (48)
needs to be adjusted:
− prior to every cutting operation, to
accommodate the height of the
workpiece (the upper blade guide
should be set approx. 3 mm above
the workpiece);
− after adjustments of band saw blade
or saw table (e.g. band saw blade
change, tensioning of the band saw
blade, saw table alignment).
Danger!
A
Before adjusting the upper
blade guide and saw table tilt:
− switch machine OFF.
− Wait until the band saw blade has
come to a complete stop.
1. Loosen locking screw (49).

extrusion suitable for the type of cut
to be performed:
− table insert extrusion with a nar-
row slot for standard cross cuts
only;
− table insert extrusion with bevel-
led slot for bevel cuts also.
2. Adjust the band saw blade speed.
3. If necessary, adjust the table tilt.
4. Select rip fence and table tilt for the
type of cutting operation to be carried out.
5. Set upper blade guide 3 mm above
the workpiece.
Note:
3
Always make a trial cut in a piece
of scrap to verify settings; correct if necessary before cutting the workpiece.
6. Place workpiece on the saw table.
7. Plug in.
8. Start saw.
9. Cut workpiece in a single pass.
10. Switch off if no further cutting is to
be done immediately afterwards.
