9.3. Freehanded cuts (Figure 21)
GB
One of the most outstanding features of a bandsaw is the ease with which it allows you to make
curved cuts and radii.
• Lower the blade guide (11) to the workpiece (see 7.5).
• Switch on the saw.
• Hold the workpiece securely on the table (15) and guide slowly through the blade (26).
• Freehanded cuts should be made at low feed speed so that you can guide the blade (26) along
the required line.
• It often pays to first cut off surplus curves and corners up to about 6 mm from the cutting line.
• In the case of curves which are too tight for the blade to cut correctly, it can help to make a
series of close-lying cuts at right angles to the curved line. When you saw the radius the mate-
rial will simply drop off.
10. Transport
To transport the bandsaw, hold the supporting foot (5) with one hand and the frame (25) with the
other hand. Important! Never use guards to lift or transport the equipment.
11. Maintenance
• Caution! Pull out the power plug first.
• Remove dust and dirt regularly from the bandsaw. Cleaning is best carried out with a fine brush
or a cloth.
• Do not use caustic cleaning agents for cleaning plastic.
