Operation Tips
Review the following tips to help you safely and
effectively operate your bandsaw and get the
maximum life out of your saw blades.
• Usetheworkstoptoquicklyandaccurately
cut multiple pieces of stock to the same
length.
• Letthebladereachfullspeedbefore
engaging the workpiece. Never start a cut
with the blade in contact with the workpiece.
• Payattentiontothechipsproducedbythe
cutting operation and use their appearance
to fine-tune the blade speed, feed speed,
and pressure (refer to the Chip Inspection
Chart on Page 27).
• Waituntilthebladehascompletelystopped
before removing the workpiece from the vise,
and avoid touching the cut end—it could be
very hot!
Release blade tension at the end of each use
to prolong blade life.
4. Adjust the valve on the coolant hose to
control the flow of coolant (see Figure 35).
Make sure that the pressure is not so high
that coolant spills on the floor and creates a
slipping hazard.

NOTICE
Keep the tray chip screen clear so coolant can
recycle to the pump reservoir. NEVER operate
the pump with the reservoir below the low
mark or you may over-heat the pump and void
your warranty!
