2.4 RECOMMENDED PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
• Gloves for moving work material and when carrying out the blade changes;
• Non-slip shoes;
• Protective eye glasses.
2.5 NOISE EMISSION
The measurements of noise, in the working position and during operation, were carried out under the standard ISO 7960 annex "J":
Instantaneous acoustic pressure
The value of the noise level indicated is an emission level and doesn't necessarily represent safe working levels.
Although there is a relationship between emission levels and exposure levels, it isn't precise enough to use in a way to determine
whether it is necessary, or not, to implement further precautions. The factors that determine the true exposure level to operators are:
the amount of exposure time, the characteristics of the working environment, other sources of dust and noise etc..
The permitted exposure level limits vary from country to country. this information allows the machine user to better evaluate the
dangers and risks.
2.6 PRESCRIBED USE OF THE MACHINE
The machine was designed for cutting solid wood, wood derivates, materials similar to cork, hard rubber and hard plastic materials
using suitable blades.
Consult Record Power on Tel:0870 770 1777 for advice on the most suitable blade selection. See section 4.2.
THESE MACHINES MUST NOT BE USED TO CUT OTHER MATERIALS
THESE MACHINES MUST NOT BE USED TO CUT METALS
2.7 HAZARDS
ATTENTION Bandsaws still present risks that cannot be eliminated by the manufacturer. Therefore the user must be aware that wood
working machines are dangerous if not used with care and all safety precautions adhered to.
We recommend you to study the information given in HSE document: "Safety in the use of narrow bandsaws"
3. Installation
3.1 HOISTING & LIFTING
The machine can be lifted using a fork-
lift truck, placing the forks under the feet
or by using a "SLING", as shown, with a
lifting capability of 2000 Kg.
3.2 POSITIONING THE MACHINE
For a correct and rational organisation of the work area :
• Install the machine in an area that will not amplify vibration or noise
• Verify that the work area is adequately illuminated.
• When placed between other machinery there should be a space of at least 80 cm. It is necessary to anticipate sufficient space for
cutting long work pieces traversly and for the fitting of rollers or other types of support,in front and at the rear of the table.
• The bases of the machines are provided with four threaded holes for levelling, the screws are provided with the machine.
There are also four holes for fixing the machine to the floor. When fixing to the floor it is recommended not to over tighten the fixtures
to avoid increasing vibration.It is also advisable to place anti-vibration materials between the floor and the feet of the machine.
