GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING THE BAND SAW
Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and
knowing how to use this Band Saw.
WARNING
To avoid mistakes that could cause serious injury, do not plug
the Band Saw in until you have read and understood the
following:
1. READ and become familiar with the entire Operator's
Manual. LEARN the tool's application, limitations and
possible hazards.
2. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
3. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES.
Form a habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from the tool before turning ON.
4. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and
benches invite accidents.
5. DON'T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don't
use power tools in damp or wet locations, or expose
them to rain. Keep work area well lighted.
6. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept
at a safe distance from work area.
7. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF with padlocks,
master switches, or by removing starter keys.
8. DON'T FORCE THE TOOL. It will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
9. USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Do not force tool or attachment
to do a job for which it was not designed.
10. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current your product will draw. An undersized
cord will result in a drop in line voltage and in loss of
power that will cause the tool to overheat. The table on
page 6 shows the correct size to use depending on cord
length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the
heavier the cord.
11. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing,
gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry that
may get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is
recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain
long hair.
