• Use a suction unit to suck up wood shavings and
sawdust. The current speed at the suction connection
piece should be 20 m/s.
• Check the saw band guide and the saw band tension
before starting up.
• Do not use nicked saw bands or those that have an
altered form.
• Replace table inserts that have worn saw slots.
• If you perform straight cuts against the parallel limit
stop you must use a sliding stick.
• The sliding stick must always be used if the distance
between the parallel limit stop and the saw blade is
less than 120 mm.
• If you do not use the sliding stick it must be stored at
the rear of the machine.
• Defective or non operative sliding sticks must be re-
placed.
• If you saw round wood you must use an appropriate
support to prevent the work piece from turning.
• When sawing round wood, make sure that the work
piece does not turn.
• For sawing heavy or cumbersome pieces, use the ap-
propriate working aids for bracing. (Special accessory
roller stands).
• Try to support the work pieces and always use the ap-
propriate saw blade to reduce the noise.
• Place the upper saw band guide as closely as possible
to the work piece.
• Once the height has been adjusted the adjusting de-
vice must be locked again.
• On slanted table plates, attach the longitudinal stop on
the lower table plate half.
• Do not brake the saw band with side pressure after
switching off.
• Remove work pieces that have become stuck only
with the motor switched off and with the saw band at
a standstill.
• Cut off the external power supply of the machine even
if only minor changes of place are envisaged. Properly
reconnect the machine to the supply mains before re-
commissioning.
• When leaving the work place, switch the motor off. Pull
the power supply plug.
• Always disconnect the mains plug when the machine is
not used.
• Check the machine prior to each operation for func-
tional safety devices, functional switch. Do not use the
machine if the safety devices, the switch, the electrical
supply lines, the plug or other parts are damaged.
• Caution: Always place the upper saw blade guidance in
the lowest position and lock it before you transport the
machine. The door must always be closed and locked.
Warning! This electric tool generates an electromagnetic
field during operation. This field can impair active or
passive medical implants under certain conditions. In
order to prevent the risk of serious or deadly injuries, we
recommend that persons with medical implants consult
with their physician and the manufacturer of the medical
implant prior to operating the electric tool.

m Use only as authorized
CE tested machines meet all valid EC machine guide-
lines as well as all relevant guidelines for each ma-
chine.
• All protective and safety device must be mounted on
the machine before beginning work.
• The machine is designed to be operated by one per-
son. The operator is responsible for all other persons
in the working area.
• Observe all safety instructions and warnings attached
to the machine.
• See to it that safety instructions and warnings attached to
the machine are always complete and perfectly legible.
• The bandsaw with the supplied tools and accessories
is designed exclusively for sawing wood, material simi-
lar to wood, and non-ferrous metals and steel.
• The maximum dimension of the workpieces to be pro-
cessed may not exceed with the standard design of
the table size.
• For larger workpiece dimensions which require tipping
of the table top, the table extension or the dolly (special
accessories) must be used.
• The band saw can also be used for sawing metal when
it is equipped with a special saw band dolly (special ac-
cessory) and a operated at an adapted cutting speed.
Metal allows with more than 80 % magnesium may not
be processed due to the danger of fires.
• With special saw blades (special accessories) the rib-
bon saw can also be used to saw non-ferrous metal
and plastics. Material alloys containing more than 80%
magnesium must not be processed due to the risk of
fire. Use only the saw blades offered by the manufac-
turer.
• When used in enclosed rooms, the machine must be
connected to a vacuum exhaust unit. Use the dust ex-
tractor to remove matchwood or saw dust. The vacu-
um support flow rate must be 20 m/s. Subatmospheric
pressure 860 Pa.
• The vacuum exhaust unit automatically switches on af-
ter a 2-3 second delay after the machine tool is turned
on. This avoids overloading the circuit fuse.
• After turning off the machine tool, the vacuum exhaust
unit remains on for an additional 2-3 seconds and is
then automatically switched off. Remaining dust is
thereby removed by vacuum exhaust, as required by
German regulations governing hazardous materials.
This results in savings in electricity consumption and
reduces noise levels, as the vacuum exhaust unit is on
only during machine tool operation.
• A suction device which conforms with commercial reg-
ulations must be used for suction in commercial areas.
• Do not switch off or remove suction units or dust ex-
tractors while the work machine is in operation.
• The machine must only be used in technically perfect
condition in accordance with its designated use and the
instructions set out in the operating manual, and only
by safety-conscious persons who are fully aware of the
risks involved in operating the machine. Any functional
disorders, especially those affecting the safety of the
machine, should therefore be rectified immediately.
