23. Use only recommended accessories. The use of accessories which are not recommended by
the manufacturer may present a risk of personal injury.

Additional safety instructions

• If using a floor stand, make sure that the band saw is securely fastened to the stand and that the stand is
properly assembled and securely fastened to the floor.
• Make sure that the band saw is positioned in such a way that the workpiece can be worked on in a safe manner.
• This saw must not be used for wet cutting. Doing so can lead to deadly electric shocks. This band saw is
only intended for dry cutting.
• The drive belt must not be put under too much tension; it will last longer if the tension is released when
the saw is not in use.
• Do not allow the build-up of sawdust around the motor or inside the machine. Piles of sawdust are a fire hazard.
• The sawblade must not be stopped through the exertion of pressure on the workpiece or by apply force to
the sides of the blade.
• The machine's safety guards must be in place and functioning properly. Always check that the blade guides
are correctly aligned.
• Never turn the machine on if the saw blade is in contact with the workpiece.
• Make sure that there are no nails or screws in the workpiece which could damage the saw blade.
• Do not attempt to modify the machine or its accessories in any way.
• Do not apply too much pressure to the workpiece when feeding it into the saw blade. A steady feed
rate reduces wear on the saw and saw blade and consequently increases the efficiency and useful life of
the band saw. Replace any worn table inserts.
• Connect the band saw to a dust extractor before starting to saw. The saw must not be used if any of its
panels is open or if the blade guard is not in place.
• Select an appropriate saw blade and sawing speed for the type of workpiece.
• When sawing with a tilted table, position the guide on the lower side of the table.
• Position the blade guard as close to the workpiece as possible.
Saw blade safety
• Use only blades recommended by the manufacturer/supplier.
• Do not use a damaged or deformed saw blade. Doing so could result in considerable danger to the user
or damage to the machine.
• The direction marked on the saw blade should correspond to the direction of the pulley's rotation.
• The teeth of the blade should be pointing downwards when the blade is viewed from the side.
