6. Do not force the material into the Saw
Blade. Light contact with the Saw Blade
will permit easier following of the line and
prevent undue friction, heating and work-
hardening of the Saw Blade at its back
edge.
7. Keep the Saw Blade sharp for easier
forward pressure when cutting.
8. Move the material slowly and steadily
against the Saw Blade.
9. Avoid twisting the Saw Blade when at-
tempting to turn sharp corners. Remem-
ber to saw around corners.
10. When cutting curves, turn the material
carefully so that the Saw Blade can fol-
low the line without being twisted.
11. If a curve is so abrupt that it is neces-
sary to repeatedly back up and cut a new
kerf, a more narrow Saw Blade should
be used.
12. After use, turn off bandsaw, remove
switch key, unplug the power cord and
allow the bandsaw to cool.
13. CAUtiON: tO preVeNt Fire:
Do not allow sawdust to accumulate
inside the bandsaw.
After every use, when the bandsaw is
cool, clean out the sawdust:
a. Wear heavy-duty gloves, ANSI-ap-
proved safety goggles and NIOSH-ap-
proved dust mask/respirator.
b. Remove the Lower Pulley Guard (21B).
c. Clean the sawdust out with a brush or
vacuum.
d. Reassemble - replace the Lower Guide
Cover (84B) when reassembling if the
Dust Chute (22B) is not installed.
e. A dust collector may reduce the need
for this cleaning if used.
