Operation Overview

The purpose of this overview is to provide the nov-

ice machine operator with a basic understanding

of how the machine is used during operation.

Due to the generic nature of this overview, it is

not intended to be an instructional guide. To learn

more about specific operations, read this entire

manual and seek additional training from expe-

rienced machine operators, and do additional

research outside of this manual by reading "how-

to" books, trade magazines, or websites.

To complete a typical operation, the operator

does the following:

1. Examines the workpiece to make sure it is

suitable for cutting.

2. Adjusts the fence away from the blade the

same width of the desired cut or out of the

way for curve cutting and then locks it in

place.

3. Adjusts the table tilt, if necessary, to the cor-

rect angle of the desired cut.

4. Adjusts the blade guide height to not more

than 1" from the top of the workpiece.

5. Checks to make sure the workpiece can safe-

ly pass all the way through the blade without

interference from other objects.

6. Puts on safety glasses.

7. Starts the dust collector and bandsaw.

8. Holds the workpiece firmly and flatly against

both the table and fence, and then pushes

the workpiece into the blade at a steady and

controlled rate until the workpiece moves

completely beyond the blade.

The operator is very careful to keep fingers

away from the blade and uses a push stick to

feed narrow workpieces.

9. Stops the bandsaw.

Workpiece

Inspection

Some wood workpieces are not safe to cut or may

require modification before they are safe to cut.

Before cutting wood, get in the habit of

inspecting all workpieces for the following:

• Material Type: This machine is intended for

cutting natural and man-made wood products,

and laminate covered wood products. Cutting

drywall or cementitious backer board creates

extremely fine dust, which may reduce the

life of the bearings. This machine is NOT

designed to cut metal, glass, stone, tile, etc.

• Foreign Objects: Nails, staples, dirt, rocks

and other foreign objects are often embed-

ded in wood. While cutting, these objects can

become dislodged and hit the operator or

break the blade, which might then fly apart.

Always visually inspect your workpiece for

these items. If they can't be removed, do

NOT cut the workpiece.

• Large/Loose Knots: Loose knots can

become dislodged during the cutting opera-

tion. Large knots can cause blade damage.

Choose workpieces that do not have large/

loose knots or plan ahead to avoid cutting

through them.

• Wet or "Green" Stock: Cutting wood with

a moisture content over 20% causes unnec-

essary wear on the blade and yields poor

results.

• Excessive Warping: Workpieces with exces-

sive cupping, bowing, or twisting are danger-

ous to cut because they are unstable and can

move unpredictably when being cut. DO NOT

cut excessively warped wood.

• Minor Warping: Workpieces with slight cup-

ping can be safely supported if the cupped

side faces the table or fence. On the contrary,

a workpiece supported on the bowed side will

rock during a cut, leading to loss of control.
