2.Addition safetyrules for this machine
1) Do not operate dull of badly worn blade. Dull blades require more effort to use and are difficult to control. Inspect blades before each use.
2) Once the saw tension is changed, the saw band should be repositioned.
3) Never position fingers or thumbs in line with the cut. Serious personal injury could occur.
4) Do not operate this machine without wheel, pulley and blade guards in place.
5) When replacing blade, make sure teeth face down toward the table. The force of the cut is always down. Make sure the blade is properlytensioned after installing.
6) Cuts should always be fully supported bythe table or some type of support fixture.
7) Do not back workpiece away from the blade while the saw is running. Plan your cuts so you always cut out of the wood. If you need to back the work out, turn the band saw off and wait for the blade to come to a complete stop. Do not twist or put excessive stress onthe blade while backing work away.
8) Blade should be running at full speed before beginning a cut.
9) Always feed stock evenly and smoothly. Do not force or twist blade while cutting, especiallywhen sawing small radii.
10) This machine is not designed to cut metal or other material except wood.
11) Do not manually stop or slow blade after turning the saw off. Allow it to come to a complete stop before you leave it unattended.
12) All inspections, adjustments and maintenance are to be done with the power off and the plug pulled from the outlet. Wait for all moving parts to come to a complete stop.
13) If at any time you are experiencing difficulties the intended operation, stop using this machine. Then contact out service department or ask a qualified expert how the operation should be performed
14) To operate this or any power tool safely and efficiently, it is essential to become as familiar with it as possible. The time you invest before you begin to use your band saw will be time well spent. Do not operate this machine until you are completely familiar with the contents of this manual or serous personal injury may occur.

VI.Electrical system
This machine is for used on 380V/50Hz, alternating current.
Grounding: In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment grounding conductor. A plug with a grounding pin must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Improper connections of the electrical-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with green and yellow striped insulation is the electrical grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal.
This equipment must be grounded. Verify that any existing electrical outlet and circuit you intend to plug into is actually grounded. Under no circumstances should the grounding pin from any four-pronged plug be removed. Serious injury may occur.
Under no circumstances should the grounding pin from any plug be removed. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Repair or replace damaged or worn cords immediately.
Check with a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if you are in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. Use only extension cords that have grounding type plugs and receptacles that accept the plug on the machine.
To prevent accident, the “off” button must be pushed when the machine doesn't work or after power interrupt.
VII. Handling and installation
