It is important to keep your band saw in perfect operating condition.
CCLLEEAANNIINNGG
After every use of the band saw, the saw and surrounding area should be cleaned
thoroughly to remove any buildup of metal filings. Use an air hose or soft bristled
brush to clean the saw components. Sweep around the saw or use a shop vacuum
to remove the debris from the floor.

1. Ensure that the lighting is adequate.
2. Adjust the upper guide to just clear the work piece.
3. Inspect the work piece and remove all nails and other foreign objects before
beginning sawing.
4. Hold the work piece firmly against table.
5. Feed the piece work into the blade against the direction of rotation of the blade.
6. Should the blade become jammed, immediately turn the machine switch OFF and
wait for the blade to come to a full and complete stop. Unplug the saw from the
power source and then proceed to gently disengage the piece from the blade.
