Blade Change
Always disconnect power
to the machine when
changing blades. Failure
to do this may result in
serious personal injury.
Bandsaw blades are sharp
and can quickly cut fingers
and hands. To reduce the
risk of this type of injury,
ALWAYS wear heavy leather
gloves when handling these
blades.
