Additional Safety Rules - Portable Band

performing an operation where the cutting accessory may
contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessories contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
could give the operator an electric shock.
• Keep hands away from cutting area and blade. Keep one
hand on the main handle and the other hand on the front handle to
prevent loss of control which could result in personal injury.
• Always make sure the portable band saw is clean before using.
