5.3.
Blade and blade speed selection
5.3.1. The hardness of the workpiece determines the blade speed required. Soft materials (light wood) - high speed, hard materials
(metals) - low speed.
5.3.2. There should be at least three saw teeth in contact with the workpiece at any one time during cutting. Therefore the thinner the
workpiece the higher the blade tpi required.
5.4.
Bevel cutting
When bevel cutting with the table tilted always have the workpiece guide (fence or mitre) on the lower part of the table.
5.5.
Workpiece stability
Any workpiece which does not have a flat surface which will ensure stability on the saw table must be held in a suitable device which
will prevent rotation.
5.6.
Disc sanding
It is recommended that, when disc sanding, the saw blade is removed or the upper blade guide is lowered onto the table so that a

5.6.1. Sanding disc is self-adhesive. Remove backing paper and stick sanding disc centrally onto aluminium disc (fig. 12.1). To remove the

5.6.2. Insert mounting rod (fig. 11.1) - end with flat - into sanding table support and tighten the two set screws (fig. 11.2) onto the flat.
5.6.3. Screw locking knob into the side of the table mounting tube (fig. 12.2).
5.6.4. Slide the mounting rod into the mounting tube (fig. 12.3) and clamp with the locking knob. The edge of the table should be no more than

6.1.
Changing tyres
Eventually the tyres on the bandsaw wheels will wear due to the constant contact with the blade teeth.
Lift the edge of the tyre with a small screwdriver and the tyre can be worked off the wheel easily. It is recommended that all three tyres
are changed at the same time.
6.2.
Blade guides
Blade guides should be inspected regularly for wear or chipping. When replacing guides, replace all guides at the same time, both upper and lower.
6.3.
Table insert
The insert should be inspected regularly and replaced if wear or damage is found.
6.4.
Bearings
All bearings used in the construction of the bandsaw and motor are sealed and lubricated for life.
6.5.
Cleaning
Remove dust and chips from the inside of the bandsaw frequently. Open the front covers and use a brush or vacuum cleaner.
At the end of every work session, clean sawdust away from the motor vents.
