SECTION 4: OPERATIONS
Operation Overview
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 table tilt, if necessary, to the cor-
rect angle of the desired cut.
3. If using the fence, adjusts it for the width of
the cut and then locks it in place. If using the
miter gauge, adjusts the angle and locks it in
place.
4. Loosens the guide post lock knob, adjusts
the upper blade guide height to just clear
the workpiece (no more than
1
⁄4"), then re-
tightens the guide post lock knob.
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 and a respirator.
7. Starts the dust collector and bandsaw.
8. Holds the workpiece firmly and flatly against
both the table and fence (or miter gauge),
and then pushes the workpiece into the blade
at a steady and controlled rate until the cut is
complete.
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.
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, so
the
machine controls/components
discussed later
in this manual
are easier to understand.
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 reduce your risk of
serious injury, read this
entire manual BEFORE
using machine.
To reduce risk of eye injury from flying
chips or lung damage from breathing dust,
always wear safety glasses and a respirator
when operating this machine.
If you are not experienced with this type
of machine, WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND
that you seek additional training outside of
this manual. Read books/magazines or get
formal training before beginning any proj-
ects. Regardless of the content in this sec-
