1.0 IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS MACHINE.
– To reduce risk of injury:
1. Read and understand entire owner's manual before
attempting assembly or operation of this machine.
2. Read and understand the warnings posted on the
machine and in this manual.
3. Replace warning labels if they become obscured or
removed.
4. This machine is designed and intended for use by
properly trained and experienced personnel only. If
you are not familiar with the proper and safe
operation of a metal band saw, do not use until proper
training and knowledge have been obtained.
5. Do not use this machine for other than its intended
use. If used for other purposes, PROMAC disclaims any
real or implied warranty and holds itself harmless from
any injury that may result from that use.
6. Always wear approved safety glasses or face shield
while using this machine. (Everyday eyeglasses only
have impact resistant lenses; they are not safety
glasses.)
7. Before operating this machine, remove tie, rings,
watches and other jewelry, and roll sleeves up past the
elbows. Remove loose clothing and confine long hair.
Non-slip footwear or anti-skid floor strips are
recommended. Do not wear gloves.
8. Wear hearing protection (plugs or muffs) during
extended periods of operation.
9. Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:

Lead from lead based paint.

Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other
masonry products.

Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated
lumber.
Your risk of exposure varies, depending on how often
you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area and
work with approved safety equipment, such as face or
dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out
microscopic particles.
10. Do not operate this machine while tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.
11. Make certain the switch is in the OFF position before
connecting the machine to the power supply. Turn off
all controls before unplugging.
12. Make certain the machine is properly grounded.
Connect to a properly grounded outlet only. See
Grounding instructions.
13. Make all machine adjustments or maintenance with
the machine unplugged from the power source.
14. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Form a habit of
checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are
removed from the machine before turning it on.
15. Keep safety guards in place at all times when the
machine is in use. If removed for maintenance
purposes, use extreme caution and replace the guards
immediately after maintenance is complete.
16. Check damaged parts. Before further use of the machine, a
guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate properly and
perform its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting and any other conditions that may affect its
operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced.
17. Provide for adequate space surrounding work area
and non-glare, overhead lighting.
18. Keep the floor around the machine clean and free of
scrap material, oil and grease.
19. Keep visitors a safe distance from the work area. Keep
children away.
20. Make your workshop child proof with padlocks,
master switches or by removing starter keys.
21. Give your work undivided attention. Looking around,
carrying on a conversation and "horse-play" are
careless acts that can result in serious injury.
22. Keep an ergonomic body position. Maintain a
balanced stance at all times so that you do not fall or
lean against the blade or other moving parts. Do not
overreach or use excessive force to perform any
machine operation.
23. Use the right tool at the correct speed and feed rate. Do
not force a tool or attachment to do a job for which it was
not designed. The right tool will do the job better and
safer.
24. The machine is intended for indoor use. To reduce the
risk of electric shock, do not use outdoors or on wet
surfaces.
25. Do not handle plug or machine with wet hands.
26. Use recommended accessories; improper accessories
may be hazardous.
27. Maintain tools with care. Follow instructions for
lubricating and changing accessories.
28. Turn off machine and disconnect from power before
cleaning. Use a brush or compressed air to remove
chips or debris; do not use bare hands.
29. Do not stand on the machine. Serious injury could
occur if the machine tips over.
30. Never leave the machine running unattended. Turn
the power off and do not leave the machine until it
comes to a complete stop.
