Quick Links

Thank you for purchasing a Sealey product. Manufactured to a high standard this product will, if used according to these instructions
and properly maintained, give you years of trouble free performance.
IMPORTANT:
You must check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure they are safe before using. You must inspect power supply leads, plugs and
all electrical connections for wear or damage. You must ensure the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety
devices. An RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that an RCD
(Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical products. It is particularly important to use an RCD with portable products that are plugged
into an electrical supply not protected by an RCCB. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a Residual Current Device by
contacting your Sealey dealer. You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. The Electricity At Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by
a qualified electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.1.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of those appliances,
and the safety of appliance operators. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3.
Ensure the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the mains power supply.
See 1.1.1. & 1.1.2. above and use a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT).
1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.1.5. Regularly inspect power supply leads and plugs for wear or damage and connections to ensure that none is loose.
1.1.6. Important: Ensure the voltage marked on the product is the same as the electrical power supply
to be used, and check that plugs are fitted with the correct capacity fuse. A 13 amp plug may require
a fuse smaller than 13 amps for certain products - see fuse rating at right.
1.1.7. DO NOT pull or carry the powered appliance by its power supply lead.
1.1.8. DO NOT pull power plugs from sockets by the power cable.
1.1.9. DO NOT use worn or damage leads, plugs or connections. Immediately replace or have repaired by
a qualified electrician. Where a U.K. 3 pin plug with ASTA/BS approval is fitted, in case of damage, cut off
and fit a new plug according to the following instructions (discard old plug safely).
(UK only - see diagram at right). Ensure the unit is correctly earthed via a three-pin plug.
a) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal ‘E’.
b) Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal ‘L’.
c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘N’.
d) After wiring, check there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly
connected, that the cable outer insulation extends past the cable restraint and that the cable restraint is tight.
Double insulated products are often fitted with live (BROWN) and neutral (BLUE) wires only. Double insulated products are always marked with
this symbol
. To re-wire, connect the brown & blue wires as indicated above. DO NOT connect the brown or blue wires to the earth terminal.
1.1.10.
If this product requires more than a 13 amp electrical supply, then NO plug is fitted. You must therefore contact a qualified electrician to
ensure a 30 amp fused supply is available. We recommend you discuss the installation of a industrial round pin plug and socket with your electrician.
1.1.11.
. When a cable extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A cable reel with an RCD
fitted is recommended since any product which is plugged into the cable reel will be protected. The section of the cores in the cable
is important and should be at least 1.5mm
for others that may be used in the other output sockets, the use of 2.5mm
Familiarise yourself with the application and limitations of the saw, as well as the specific potential hazards.
!
F
Keep all guards and holding screws in place, tight and in good working order. Check regularly for damaged parts.
F
A guard, or any other part, that is damaged must be repaired or replaced before next use of the saw. The safety guards are mandatory
when the bandsaw is used in premises covered by the Health & Safety at Work Act.
Disconnect bandsaw from the mains power supply before changing accessories, making repairs or adjustments.
F
Wear approved safety eye protection, ear defenders, gloves and, if dust is generated, respiratory protection.
F
Evaluate your working area before using the bandsaw and always give your work your undivided attention.
F
Replace warning labels if they become obscured or removed.
F
Always provide adequate support for long and heavy material.
F
Never operate the bandsaw unless all blade guards are installed and in proper working order.
F
Never operate the bandsaw with the blade in the raised position.
F
Do not turn bandsaw on until workpiece is secured in vice and the blade has been positioned just above the workpiece.
F
Do not over tighten blade as it will stretch and warp.
F
Take care lifting the bandsaw arm as it is heavy, and could, if not correctly lifted, affect the whole balance of the machine.
F
Locate the bandsaw in a suitable area, keep area clean and uncluttered and ensure there is adequate lighting.
!
Maintain the machine and keep in good condition (use an authorised service agent).
!
Ensure the machine is situated on a solid surface, adequate for supporting the weight of the machine and the workpiece.
!
Check the alignment of moving parts regularly, for safest performance keep the machine clean at all times.
!
Turn off the machine before raising the blade.

    When not in use unplug from the mains supply and make every effort to make the machine childproof. The SM35CE is designed for light/medium metal cutting work in engineering workshops, garages and metal fabricators, etc., It is not to be used for cutting any other material, or used in a vertical position. The bandsaw is not suitable for cutting wood and, if used for this purpose, the insurer will not provide coverage.
  • Page 3 Proper blade tension is very important to the safe and efficient running of the bandsaw. The correct tension for the SM35CE is between as measured with a blade tension gauge. 5.3.1. Install the blade around the wheels and between the blade bearing guides.
  • Page 4 6.3.4. Check the guide bearings frequently to make sure they are properly adjusted and turning freely. 6.4.1. Replace the brush as soon as it becomes worn or damaged or blade life will be significantly shortened. SM35CE - 0016 - (4) - 140301...
