READ ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL
CAREFULLY BEFORE ASSEMBLY, INSTALLATION AND USE
OF THIS PRODUCT.
KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS IN A SAFE PLACE FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE.
WARNING: When using electric tools, basic safety precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock and personal injury.
SAFE OPERATION
1. Eye Protection
The operation of any power tool can result in
foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, which can result
in severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses or other
suitable eye protection. Wear safety glasses at all times.
Everyday glasses only have impact resistant lenses. They are
not safety glasses which give additional lateral protection.
2. Keep work area clear.
Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents and injuries.
3. Consider work area environment.
Do not expose the machine to rain or damp conditions.
• Keep the work area well lit.
• Do not use the machine in the presence of flammable
liquids or gases.
4. Guard against electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces.
5. Keep other persons away (and pets).
Do not let persons, especially children, not involved in the work,
touch the machine, or extension cord (if used) and keep visitors
away from the work area.
6. Store idle tools.
When not in use, tools should be stored in a dry, locked- up
place, out of reach of children.
7. Do not force the machine.
It will do the job better and work more safely if operated at the
speed at which it was intended.
8. Use the right tool.
• Do not force small tools to do the job of a heavy-duty tool.
• Do not use tools for purposes other than those for which they
were intended.
9. Dress properly.
• Non-slip footwear is recommended.
• Do not wear loose clothing, neckties or jewellery; they can be
caught in moving parts.
• Roll up long sleeves above the elbow.
• Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
10. Use protective equipment
• Use safety glasses. (See note 1. above)
• Use face or dust shield if cutting operation creates dust.
• Use ear plugs or ear defenders when the machine is in use
11. Connect dust extraction equipment.
(See section 1 L)
12. Do not abuse the cord.
Never yank the cord to disconnect it from the socket. Keep the
cord away from heat, oil and sharp edges.
13. Do not overreach.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
14. Secure work.
Ensure that your work piece is properly held before
starting to cut.
15. Maintain tools with care.
• Follow instructions for lubrication and changing accessories.
• Inspect electric cords periodically and, if damaged, have them
repaired by an authorized service facility or qualified electrician.
• Inspect extension cords (if used) periodically and replace if
damaged. Always use properly rated extension cord.
16. Disconnect Machine.
When not in use, before servicing, changing blades etc.
disconnect the machine from the power supply.
17. Never leave machine running unattended.
Turn power off, do not leave machine until it comes to a
complete stop.
18. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches.
ENSURE that all adjusting wrenches and keys are removed
before switching the machine ‘ON’.
19. Avoid unintentional starting.
Ensure the switch is in the “STOP” position before turning
on the power from the main electricity supply. Your Record
Bandsaw already incorporates low voltage protection. This
means the machine will not automatically start up after say a
power cut, unless you first reset the start switch.
20. Out-door Extension Leads.
Your machine should not be used outdoors.
21. Stay alert.
Watch what you are doing, use common sense and do not use
the machine when you are tired.
22. Check for damaged parts.
• Before use of the machine, it should be carefully checked to
determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended
function.
• Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting and any other conditions that may
affect its operation.
• A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by a qualified person unless otherwise
indicated in this instruction manual. Have defective switches
replaced by a qualified person.
• Do not use the machine if the switch does not turn on and off.
23. Warning!
• The use of any accessory or attachment, other than those
recommended in this instruction manual, or recommended by
our Company may present a risk of personal injury.
24. Have your machine repaired by a qualified person.
• This electric machine complies with the relevant safety rules.
Only qualified persons using original spare parts should carry
out repairs. Failure to do this may result in considerable danger
to the user.
25. This machine is designed for cutting wood.
• It can safely cut some plastics and acrylics but should never
be used to cut metal.
Maintenance and Servicing
This machine requires very little maintenance. This handbook
gives clear instructions on installation, set up and operation.
Read these instructions carefully. Remember always to switch
off and unplug from the main electricity supply before carrying
out any setting up or maintenance operations.
Should you need advice on the repair or maintenance of this
product, our Customer Service Department can be contacted
on 0870 770 1777 and will be happy to assist you.
Health & Safety Guidance
SAFETY IS A COMBINATION OF OPERATOR
COMMON SENSE AND ALERTNESS AT ALL
TIMES WHEN THE BANDSAW IS BEING USED.
WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, DO NOT ATTEMPT
TO OPERATE YOUR BANDSAW UNTIL IT IS COMPLETELY
ASSEMBLED AND INSTALLED ACCORDING TO THE
INSTRUCTIONS.
SAFE OPERATION
1. The bandsaw should be bolted to the floor where possible.
2. If you are not thoroughly familiar with the operation of
bandsaws, obtain advice from your supervisor, instructor, or
other qualified person or contact your retailer for information
on training courses. Do not use this machine until adequate
training has been undertaken.
3. Never turn the machine ‘ON’ before clearing the table of all
objects (tools, scrap pieces etc.)
4. Ensure that:
(i) the voltage of the machine corresponds to the mains voltage.
(ii) To use an earthed power source (wall socket).
(iii) The cord and plug are in good condition, i.e. not frayed or
damaged.
(iv) No saw teeth are missing and the blade is not cracked or
split. Otherwise replace blade.
(v) The blade is properly tensioned and aligned.
5. Never start the machine with the saw blade pressed against
the workpiece.
6. Never apply sideways pressure on the blade as this may
cause the blade to break.
7. Care must be taken when cutting wood with knots, nails or
cracks in it and / or dirt on it, as these can cause the blade to
get stuck.
8. Never leave the machine running unattended.
9. Ensure the teeth of the blade are pointing downwards.
10. Do not use saw blades which are damaged or deformed.
11. Replace the table insert when it is worn.
12. When cutting round timber use a suitable device to prevent
twisting of the workpiece. See section 9 Fig. 9.4.
13. DO NOT operate the machine when the door or the blade
guard is not closed.
14. Adjust the guard as close as possible to the workpiece
being cut.
15. Ensure the selection of the saw blade and speed are
suitable for the material to be cut. For most wood cutting
applications the fastest of the two speeds should be used. See
section 9.
16. If the mains lead is damaged, it must only be replaced by a
qualified electrician.
17. Never use a long extension cable.
18. WARNING LABELS – It is important that labels bearing
Health & Safety Warnings are not removed or painted over. New
labels are available from Customer Services.
19. MECHANICAL SAFETY – The security of all clamps and
work holding devices should be checked before switching on.
20. WOOD DUST – The fine particles of dust produced in
cutting operations are a potential health risk. Some imported
hardwoods do give off highly irritant dust which causes a
burning sensation. We strongly recommend the use of a
dust collector and dust mask/visor. Our Customer Services
Department will be happy to advise you on the correct unit for
your needs.
21. This machine falls under the scope of the ‘Health &
Safety at Work etc. Act 1974’, and the ‘Provision & Use of
Work Equipment Regulations 1998’. We recommend that you
study and follow these regulations. Further guidance can be
found in the Safe Use of Narrow Bandsaws and the Safe Use
of Woodworking Machinery code of practice booklet (L114)
published by Health & Safety Executive and available by visiting
http://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/wis31.htm.
For further help on any of the above matters please contact our
Customer Services Department at :-
Tel: 0870 770 1777 Fax: 0870 770 1888
WARNING: Do not allow familiarity (gained from frequent use of
your machine) to cause complacency. Always remember that a
careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.
