m ATTENTION! Do not slide the stop rail (B) too far
in the direction of the saw blade.
m ATTENTION! When working with the machine, all
protective devices and guards must be fitted.
The upper and lower bandwheel is protected by a fixed
guard and an articulated cover. When opening the cov-
er, the machine is switched off. Starting is possible
only with closed cover.
9. Operation
m ATTENTION!
Always make sure the product is fully assembled
before commissioning!
9.1 On/Off switch (15) (Fig. 17)
• To turn the machine on, press the green button „I".
• To turn the machine off again, press the red button „0".
• The band saw is equipped with an under voltage
switch. With a power failure, the band saw must be
switched back on again.
9.2 Fitting the parallel stop (Fig. 5+18)
• Place the parallel stop (14) on the guide rail (43) to
the left or right of the sawing blade.
• Press the clamping bar (42) down to fix the parallel
stop (14) in place. The clamping force of the parallel
stop can be adjusted at the rear knurled nut (41).
• Make sure that the parallel stop (14) always runs par-
allel to the band saw blade (26).
9.3 Angled cuts (Fig. 20)
In order to execute angled cuts parallel to the band saw
blade (26), it is possible to tilt the saw bench (7) for-
wards from 0° - 45°.
• Undo locking handle (22) and wing nut (21).
• Tilt saw bench (7) forwards, until the desired angle is
set on the degree scale (35).
• Retighten the locking handle (22) and wing nut (21).
m ATTENTION! With a tilted saw table (7), the parallel
stop (14) must always be fitted to the right of the band
saw blade (26) in the working direction. This prevents
the workpiece from slipping.
10. Working instructions
The following recommendations are examples of the
safe use of band saws.
36 | GB
The following safe working methods should be seen as
an aid to safety. They cannot be applied suitably com-
pletely or comprehensively to every use. They cannot
treat every possible dangerous condition and must be
interpreted carefully.
• Connect the machine to a suction unit when working
in closed rooms. A suction device which conforms
with commercial regulations must be used for suc-
tion in commercial areas.
• Loosen the sawband when the machine is not in op-
eration (e.g. after finishing work). Attach a notice on
the tension of the saw band to the machine for the
next user.
• Collect unused sawbands and store them safely in
a dry place. Check for faults (teeth, cracks) before
use. Do not use faulty sawbands!
• Wear suitable gloves when handling sawbands.
• All protective and safety devices must be securely
mounted on the machine before beginning work.
• Never clean the sawband or the sawband guide with
a hand-held brush or scraper while the sawband is
running. Resin-covered sawbands impair working
safety and must be cleaned regularly.
• For your own protection, wear protective glasses
and hearing protection. Wear a hairnet if you have
long hair. Roll up loose sleeves over the elbows.
• Always position the sawband guide as near the
workpiece as possible when working.
• Insure sufficient lighting in the work area and around
the machine.
• Always use the fence for straight cuts to keep the
workpiece from tipping or slipping away.
• When working on narrow workpieces with manual
feed, use the push stick.
• For diagonal cuts, place the saw bench in the appro-
priate position and guide the workpiece on the fence.
• In order to cut dovetail tenons and teeth or wedges,
bring the saw table into the corresponding position
on the angle scale.
• For arced and irregular cuts, push the workpiece
evenly using both hands with the fingers together.
Hold the workpiece with your hands on a safe area.
• Use a pattern for repeated arced or irregular cuts.
• Insure that the workpiece does not roll when cutting
round pieces.
m ATTENTION! After every new setting, we recom-
mend performing a test cut, in order to check the di-
mensional settings.
• With all cutting processes, the top saw band guide
(5) must be positioned as close as possible to the
workpiece (see 8.9).
