7. Whenever possible, hold the saw firmly in both
hands. If an application requires only one hand
to be placed on the saw, be sure to keep the
second hand clear of the blade area and do
not allow the saw to fall against the clamped or
supported material when the cut is complete.
Tips for Better Cutting
The following recommendations should be used
as a guide (refer to the Recommended Cutting
Positions chart). Results may vary with the operator
and the particular material being cut.
• Never twist the band saw blade during cutting
operation.
• Never use liquid coolants with portable band
saws. Use of liquid coolants will cause build-up
on tyres and reduce performance.
• If excessive vibration occurs during the cut,
ensure that the material being cut is securely
clamped down. If vibration continues, change
the band saw blade.
