4 Safety Rules for Band Saws
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 and limitations as well as the specific hazards peculiar to it.
2. PERMANENTLY MOUNT YOUR BAND SAW before performing cutting operations
3. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
4. MAKE ALL ADJUSTMENTS AND SET UPS, such as tilting the table or adjusting the saw blade guards and
blade guides, WITH THE POWER OFF.
5. ADJUST BLADE TENSION, upper and lower blade guides, thrust bearing, and blade tracking correctly.
6. DOORS AND BLADE GUARD must be in place and securely fastened when performing saw operations.
7. SECURELY LOCK ALL ADJUSTABLE PARTS so they cannot loosen while sawing. This will prevent
distraction from sawing operations.
8. PLACE THE BLADE GUARD to within 5 mm above the material being cut.
9. USE THE PROPER BLADE TYPE AND SIZE for the material being cut.
10. ALLWAYS KEEP HANDS AND FINGERS AWAY from the saw blade, especially at the end of a cut.
11. HOLD MATERIAL FIRMLY and feed into the blade at a moderate speed.
12. USE A PUSH STICK or piece of scrap wood to do the pushing and guiding when sawing small pieces which
require the fingers to be close to the blade.
13. DO NOT SAW STOCK that does not have a flat surface unless a suitable support is used.
14. ALWAYS STOF THE MACHINE before removing scrap pieces from the table.
15. STOP THE MACHINE if the material is to be backed out of an unclompleted cut.
16. WHEN SAWING CURVES, make relief cuts to allow 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.
