when working with a tilted table.
Plan your work steps in advance. Follow the old rule:
„It's better to measure twice and cut once than to
measure once and cut twice!" Always aim at making
a complete cut in one pass rather than in a stop-and-
go operation requiring the workpiece to be
withdrawn. If you have to withdraw the workpiece,
switch off the bandsaw first and wait for the blade to
stop before freeing the workpiece. Remember that
the blade produces a kerf. Adjust the cutting width
accordingly so that the kerf lies in the off-cut section
of the workpiece.
After every new adjustment we recommend you to
make a trial cut in order to check the new settings.

8.1 Longitudinal cuts

Longitudinal cutting is when you use the saw to cut
along the grain of the wood.
It is possible to make freehanded cuts along a
marked line. You will achieve better results, however,
if you guide the workpiece along the parallel fence.
For right-angled cuts (with the table at right angles to
the blade), place the parallel fence to the left of the
blade so that you can guide the workpiece safely
along the fence with your right hand. For mitre cuts
with the table tilted, place the parallel fence to the
right of the blade on the downward pointing side
(provided the workpiece is wide enough) in order to
stop the workpiece from slipping off.

8.2 Cross cuts

Cross cutting is when you use the saw to cut at right
angles to the grain of the wood. It is also possible to
make freehanded cross cuts. We recommend using
the cross fence, however, in the interest of safety as
well as precision. The cross fence can be adjusted to
angles of up to 45° for mitre cuts. With the table tilted
it is also possible to make double mitre cuts.
Hold the workpiece securely against the cross fence
and flat on the table. Watch your fingers, particularly
toward the end of the cut. Keep away from the blade.
Small workpieces should be held by a screw clamp.
The cross fence can be equipped with a limit stop to
enable several workpieces to be cut exactly to the
same length. You can also use this limit stop as a
support when working with the table tilted.
8.3 Freehanded cuts
One of the most outstanding features of a bandsaw
is the ease with which it allows you to make curved

cuts. Freehanded cuts should be made at low feed
speed so that you can guide the blade along the
required line. Be careful not to push the workpiece
sideways off the cutting line or the blade will twist
and jam in the kerf. It often pays to first cut off
surplus material up to about 10 mm from the cutting
line. In the case of radii which are too tight for the
blade to cut correctly, it can help to make a series of
close-lying cuts at right angles to the curved line.
When you saw the radius the material will drop off
and the blade cannot become jammed.

9. Cleaning and maintenance

Bearings
Apply high-quality machine grease to the bearings of
the guide pulleys at regular intervals but at least after
every 25-30 hours in operation.
Cleaning
Remove saw dust and chips regularly from the inside
of the bandsaw. Switch off the machine and pull out
the power plug before you open the housing cover.
When the cover is open, clean the inside with a
brush or vacuum cleaner. After every work session,
remove the dust and chips from the cooling vents of
the motor.
Maintenance
Do not carry out any repairs yourself. If any problems
arise, take your bandsaw to a specialist workshop.

10. Ordering replacement parts

Please provide the following information on all orders
for replacement parts:
- Type of machine
- Article number of the machine
- ID number of the machine
