HE STARRETT–St-1101 HORIZONTAL BAND SAW was developed
to meet the quality, safety, modernity and technology criteria, in response to user
needs, in conformity with CE standards.
This machine is intended for PROFESSIONAL and/or HOBBY, PORTABLE
use, recommended for cutting structural shapes, thin-wall tubes, made of low-
carbon ferrous or non-ferrous materials (bronze and aluminum alloys, among
others). The physical characteristics of such materials, such as hardness, tenacity
and density, should pose no safety problems for users during cutting operations.
This equipment IS NOT recommended for cutting materials whose production
volumes are high and continuous, i e., involving several operating hours each day.
In such cases, Starrett recommends one of its other machine models more
specifically developed and designed for large volume cutting operations.
If used in INDUSTRY, the technical characteristics and machine cutting
capability limits shall be complied with (item 2.2 –Technical Characteristics), or else
stand liable for LOSING THE WARRANTY granted by Starrett. If in doubts,
Starrett will be at your disposal for any clarifications.
