Portable Band Saw Specific Safety Information

Always hold this power tool by its insulated gripping surfaces during operation as cutting ac-
cessories or other metal parts may come in contact with hidden live wire sources.

Never leave this tool unattended and do not put it down until its blade comes to a complete
stop as the tool can get out of control, if moving parts make contact with a surface.

Before each use, make sure the Tension Handle is in its closed position, tightening the blade.

Always ensure that the cutting material is securely fastened down before beginning to work on
it. Work slowly and carefully when performing tasks such as cutting corners, sharp edges or
ragged welds in order to avoid snagging.

Cutting material as well as the motor housing of the tool can get very hot during operation.
Take breaks on a regular basis in order to allow the device to cool down and to thereby pro -
long its work life and minimise the risk of injury.

Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool. These carry important safety information and
need to be readable at all times.

Always be sure to prepare to begin work before turning on the tool in order to avoid unneces-
sarily starting the same.

When using this handheld power tool, make sure to always maintain a firm grip on it, using
both hands to resist starting torque.

Always make sure to properly turn the tool off and to disconnect it from its power source when
it is not in use.

Always make sure that this tool is inaccessible to children in order to prevent them from play-
ing with it.

People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields
in close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause pacemaker interference or pacemaker fail -
ure. In addition, people with pacemakers should avoid operating alone. Do not use with power
switch locked on. Properly maintain and inspect to avoid electrical shock. Any power cord
must be properly grounded. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) should also be implemen-
ted – it prevents electrical shock.

The warnings, precautions and instructions contained in this operation manual cannot cover
all possible scenarios that may potentially occur. Always use the tool with foresight and cau-
tion.

To reduce vibration, maintain the tool as explained in this manual. If any abnormal vibration
occurs, stop using the tool immediately.

Wear appropriate safety gloves in order to further reduce the negative effects vibration can
have on the user.

This device may only be used by individuals with reduced, physical, sensory or mental capab-
ilities, or lack of experience and/or knowledge, if they have received instructions concerning
the use of the tool from and are being supervised by a person familiar with the tool and re-
sponsible for their safety. Children are not allowed to operate the tool and should be super-
vised at all times in order to ensure that they do not play with it.
