1. MACHINE DESCRIPTION

It is a stationary stainless steel bandsaw. This machine is used for cutting meat, frozen meat, bones and
other foodstuff. The band saw is fitted with a machine casing, a top and a bottom wheel, a saw blade, a
blade tensioning device, a drive and an electrical cabinet. The product is placed by hand onto the fixed
table or onto the carriage and pushed against the cutting zone of the saw blade by the product pusher or
the back wall on the sliding table and cut.
2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
The machine is equipped with some safety devices in order to prevent hazards. All the operators who use
the bandsaw should read the instruction manual before using it.
" NOTE: It is very important to verify that all the safety devices (electric and mechanic devices detailed
below) perform correctly before starting a new working day."

ELECTRICAL DEVICES:

1. The machine is equipped with a safety tension 24 V. system as detailed in wiring diagram page 27.
2. At any case of machine stopping, the blade gets stopped before 4 seconds. Therefore, the user has
an additional safety measure on the blade element guards, avoiding the risk of accidents.
3. When the power is restored after a power interruption or when an interlock switch is remade the
machine does not automatically start. It is necessary to restart the machine by pressing the on switch.
Therefore, the risk of a start unattended by the user is avoided in the case of having the hands close to the
cutting zone at that moment.
4. If the door cap is opened for any cleaning or maintenance operation, the machine will not start. If the machine
is working and we open the door cap, the saw blade comes to a standstill at the latest 4 seconds after the door is
opened. Therefore, the risk of a start unattended by the user is avoided in the case of cleaning the machine.
5. All the band saws, unless other instructions are given, leave the factory connected to 400 V three
phases. The machine is provided with a plug and a double hose wire made up of 4 wires. The green and
the yellow wire are the earth connection and the rest are the phases.
6. The electrical components are protected according to IP65.
7. The motor has a thermal protection, according to IP65.
MECHANICAL DEVICES:
1. There is the option to set a device named pusher (6) or a device named carriage (8) with the top (30)
thickness slice, which are used for sending the product to the blade. They minimise the risk of operator' s hurting.
2. There is the option to set a device named bearing table (25), to send the product to the cutting blade,
in order to minimise the risk of operator's hurt while sawing.
3. The entire blade run, except the cutting zone, is protected by a metallic case (18). The operator is only
exposed to the run part expressly left to cut.
SYMBOLS:
It is obligatory to read all the instructions
manual before any operating on the machine.
