Use and Care Manual

The protective coating on the saw table prevents rust

from forming during shipping and storage. Remove it

by rubbing with a rag dipped in kerosene, mineral spir-

its or paint thinner. (Dispose of potentially flammable

solvent-soaked rags according to manufacturer’s safe-

ty recommendations.)

A putty knife, held flat to avoid scratching the surface,

may also be used to scrape off the coating followed

by clean-up with solvent. Avoid rubbing the saw’s paint-

ed surfaces, as many solvent-based products will

remo-ve paint.

To prevent rust, apply a light coating of paste wax or use

regular applications of any after-market surface protec-

tant or rust inhibitor.

CLEAN UP

Tip: With a screw driver, push a solvent-saturated rag into the T-slot to remove the grease.

PLACEMENT WITHIN THE SHOP / ESTABLISHING A SAFETY ZONE

ESTABLISHING A SAFET

Y ZONE

For shops with frequent visitors or multiple operators, it

is advisable to establish a Safety Zone around shop

machi-nery. A clearly defined “no-go” zone on the floor

around each machine can help avoid accidents that

could cause injury to either the operator or the shop

visitor. It is advi-sable to take a few moments to either

paint (using non-slip paint) or using tape, define on the

floor the limits or perimeter of each machines safety

zone. Take steps to ensure that all operators and shop

visitors are aware that these areas are off limits when-

ever a machine is running for everyone but the indivi-

dual operating the unit.

PLACEMENT WITHIN THE SHOP

This machine should be installed and operated only

on a solid, flat and stable floor that is able to support

the weight of the bandsaw 440 lbs (200 kg) and the

operator. Using the dimensions shown as a guideline,

plan for placement within your shop that will allow the

operator to work unencumbered and unobstructed by

foot traffic (either passing shop visitors or other shop

workers) or other tools or machinery.
