OPERA TING THE MET AL CUTTING BAND SAW The Kawasaki™ Metal Cutting Band saw can be operated in two modes: horizontal cutting and vertical cutting. The horizontal cutting is for larger or thicker workpieces while the vertical cutting table is generally used for smaller lightweight workpieces or workpieces requiring bevel cuts.
10. T o set the vise for angled cuts, loosen the two screws on the front vise plate. A gauge mounted on the side of the saw base will line up with the vise plate indicating the angle of cut. 11. For precise angle cutting, open the vise all the way and place a protractor or other precise measuring gauge against the vise plate.
CUTTING CURVES The blade on the metal cutting band saw does not turn from side-to-side to create scrolling effects. Cutting curved corners is achieved by making relief cuts along the curved path. The relief cuts allow the blade to make the cut without twisting.
TROUBLE PROBABLE CAUSE SOLUTION 30 TROUBLE PROBABLE CAUSE SOLUTION 29 Excessive Blade Breakage 1. Workpiece loose in vise 2. Incorrect feeding speed 3. Blade spacing to far apart 4. Workpiece too coarse 5. Blade tension incorrect 6. T eeth contacting work- piece before saw starts 7.
If you must use an extension cord, be sure that the gauge is large enough to carry the amount of current necessar y for your power tool. If not, your tool may experi- ence a loss of power , excessive voltage drop or overheating. The smaller the gauge number , the heavier the cord (see table below).
