2. Bring the work stop
5
while keeping the blade off of the workpiece. Turn the
saw on.
3. When saw reaches desired rotation speed, slowly and
gently tilt the main body of the tool to bring the band
saw blade into contact with the workpiece. Do not apply
additional pressure in excess of the weight of the main
body of the tool. Carefully avoid bringing the band saw
blade suddenly and heavily into contact with the upper
surface of the workpiece. This will cause serious damage
to the band saw blade. To obtain maximum service life of
the band saw blade, ensure there is no sudden impact at
the beginning of the cutting operation.
4. Straight cutting can be accomplished by keeping the
band saw blade aligned perpendicular to the material.
Any twisting or cocking of the blade will cause the cut to
go offline and decrease the life of the blade.
NOTICE: During cutting, if the band saw becomes
locked or jammed in the workpiece material, release
the switch immediately to avoid damage to the band
saw blade and motor.
5. The tool's own weight provides the most efficient
downward cutting pressure. Added operator pressure
slows the blade and reduces blade life.
6. End pieces, which would be heavy enough to cause
injury when they drop, after cut-off, should be supported.
Safety shoes are strongly recommended. End pieces may
be hot and sharp.

Tips for Better Cutting
The following recommendations should be used as a guide
(refer to Recommended Cutting Positions). 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 tires and
reduce performance.
•
If excessive vibration occurs during the cut, ensure that
the material being cut is is securely clamped down. If
vibration continues, change the band saw blade.
•
Always keep at least 2–3 teeth engaged in the cut.
