carried out by qualified electricians.
ATTENTION:
-Check first if the saw blade is tensioned and runs freely and if all
safety devices are fitted before starting the machine.
- If the direction of rotation is not correct, the phase converter
inside the CEE Euro plug must be pushed in and turned 180°.
(The saw blade must run down to the table)
5.4 Dust connection
Before initial operation, the machine must be connected to a dust
extractor. The suction should switch on automatically when the
bandsaw is switched on.
The flow rate on the suction port must be 20m/sec.
Flexible hoses must be of non-flammable quality, and must be
connected to the machine ground system.
5.5 Starting operation
You can start the machine with the green ON-button. The red OFF-
button on the main switch (18, Fig 1) stops the machine.
In case of machine overload the motor overload cut-off will react.
After appr.10 min of cooling the machine can be started again.
6. Machine operation
Correct working position:
In front of the machine standing in the direction of cutting.
Cut preparation:
Bring the upper blade guide to a distance of approximately 3mm
to the workpiece (Fig 18).
Fig 18
For your own safety, always set the saw guide as close to the
workpiece as possible.
Work only with a sharp and flawless sawblade.
Make sure blade is tracked and tensioned correctly.
Make sure blade guides are adjusted correctly.
If using the fence, move it into position and lock it to the guide rail.
Work only with rip fence securely locked in place.
For narrow shallow cuts on the rip fence, place the fence profile
into the horizontal position (Fig 7).
Turn on band saw and allow it to reach full speed.
Workpiece handling:
Hands placed flat on the workpiece outside the cutting area.
Feed the workpiece towards the saw blade in the direction of the
saw line, and cut as required by turning to follow the line drawn.
Push the workpiece steadily forward; complete the cut as a single
movement.
If possible, do not draw the workpiece back, as this could cause
the sawblade to run off its wheels.
Support long and wide workpieces with helping roller stands.
Near the cutting area use a push stick to feed, to prevent your
hands to come close to the saw blade.
Make relief cuts whenever necessary. A relieve cut is an extra cut
made through the waste portion of the wood.
Use a feeding template to safely guide small and narrow
workpieces.
Use a suitable wedge to prevent round timber from turning under
the pressure of the cut.
Blade Drift:
Blade drift is a frequent problem on rip cuts and during resawing.
Blade drift may occur when the fence is being used, the blade
begins to wander off the cutting line (Fig 19).
.
Fig 19
Blade drift can be caused by a number of factors.
- The saw blade follows the grain
- The saw blade is dull.
- Blade guides not adjusted correctly.
- Blade tension insufficient.
- Blade-teeth have asymmetric“set”
Resaw guide:
The resaw guide allows you to compensate blade drift.
The feed direction can be lined up to follow the cut.
For resawing attach the guide to the fence with the lock knob.
Position the guide so that it is centred with the blade teeth. (Fig
20).
Fig 20
Mitre gauge:
Place the mitre gauge in the table T-slot.
The mitre gauge bar has two slots, each with a set screw. Rotate
these set screws (Fig 21), to eliminate any unwanted play in the T-
slot.
Fig 21
The mitre gauge has positive stops for 90° and 45°:
If the stops need adjustment, loosen the lock nuts (D, Fig 22) and
adjust the stop screws (E).

7. Setup and adjustments
General note:
Setup and adjustment work may only be carried out after the
machine is protected against accidental starting by pulling the
mains plug.
7.1 Saw blade selection
The sawblade has to meet the technical specification.
Choose a suitable sawblade, according to the cutting operation
and according to the material to be cut.
For a high rip cut:
- use a wide sawblade, coarse teethed
(e.g. 20mm, 3 T/”)
For a narrow curved cut:
- use a narrow sawblade
(e.g. 3mm, 14 T/”).
Pitch:
The pitch should not be smaller than necessary, as the feed speed
is reduced if there are too many teeth working on the workpiece
simultaneously, which causes the saw blade to wear more quickly.
Ideally, 3 to 12 teeth should be in action at the same time (Fig 27).
Fig 27
The following table shows recommended saw blade pitch in
relation to workpiece thickness (Fig 28).
Fig 28
Tooth Shape:
The tooth shape effects the chip capacity and the feed rate. The
following table shows common tooth shapes (Fig 29):
Fig 29
A- Regular tooth:
The most common used tooth shape. 0° rake angle.
Suited for cut-off and contour sawing of most materials. For
cutting materials where a fine cut is required.
B- Skip tooth:
Widely spaced teeth, to prevent clogging. 0°rake angle.
For resawing and ripping thick stock, especially soft woods.
C- Hooked tooth:
Large teeth and a positive rake angle, for aggressive, faster cutting.
For resawing and ripping thick stock, especially hard woods.
D- Variable tooth:
Variable tooth shape and spacing produces smooth cuts and
dampens vibrations.
Set:
Saw teeth are bent out of the plane of the saw body, resulting in a
wide cut in the workpiece.
This helps reduce friction and allows curve cuts).
The alternate set (Y, Fig 30) is the most used for woodworking
blades.
Fig 30
X- Raker set
Y- Alternate set
Z- Wavy set
Blade width:
Use a possibly wide blade, except for contour cutting.
The following table shows relation between saw blade width and
smallest cutting radius (Fig 31).
Fig 31
Blade material:
- carbon steel
- alloy steel
- bimetal (HSS teeth welded onto alloy steel blade body)
-carbide tipped.
7.2 Changing the sawblade
Check sawblade for flaws (cracks, broken teeth, bending) before
installation. Do not use faulty sawblades.
The sawblade teeth must point in cutting direction (down)
Always wear suitable gloves when handling sawblades.
To remove the blade:
Open the wheel covers.
Remove the table insert (F, Fig 32) and the table pin (G).
Fig 32
Release the blade tension by operating the quick blade tension
lever (Q, Fig 33) and by turning the blade tension handwheel (A).
Fig 33
After the new saw blade is installed, tighten the sawblade
sufficiently. Follow the scale (B, Fig 34).
Fig 34
Close the wheel covers.
7.3 Blade tracking adjustment
Blade tracking shall never be performed when the machine is
running.
The sawblade must run on the centre of the rubber tyres (Fig 35).
Fig 35
Lower the guide post until you can see the blade through the
tracking window (C, Fig 36).
Loosen the lock handle (D)
With the knob (E) on the back of the machine the blade tracking
can be adjusted.
Fig 36
7.4 Blade tension adjustment

37) in the Full-Tension position (X).
Fig 37
Note:
When the band saw is not in use, place the quick blade tension
lever to the Partial-Tension position (Y), this will prolong the
blade’s life.
For blade changing, place the lever to the Fully-Released position
(Z).
Blade tension sensor:
The machine is equipped with an interlock switch. The machine
can only be operated when the saw blade is tensioned (lever
position X).
7.5 Blade guide adjustment

Loosen the lock knobs (G, M).
Adjust the guide bearing by rotating the knurled knob (H, N).
Note: do not fore guide bearings against side of blade.
A quick way to achieve the spacing needed (~0.1mm) is placing a
paper or note between blade and guide bearing (Fig 43).
Fig 43
Lock all fasteners.
Test run:
Make sure all fasteners are locked.
Turn the wheels by hand and inspect the adjustments made.
Start the machine with care.
7.6 Folding the bandsaw blade
A folded saw blade needs less space.
Always wear suitable gloves when handling sawblades.
Hold the bandsaw blade in one hand. Let it hang down vertically
and hold it to the floor with a foot. Turn your hand through 360°, a
complete circle, as you move it down towards the floor (Fig 44).
