====Demonstration====
   −
To show basic knowledge of the Bandsaw, the student will demonstrate safely cutting out a curved shape using scrap woodRemember to set the blade guide height approximately 1/4" above the top of the material to limit blade exposure. When cutting a curve, make sure the radius is not too tight for the blade being used.
+
Demonstrate you can safely setup the saw and cut out a curved shape.  After making the curved cut demonstrate using the fence to make a straight cut. A Training Venture (TV) that uses the {{PAGENAME}} is the [[Wooden Train Whistle]].

# Don’t feed anything into the blade you don’t want cut. First off, it makes no sense and it could pull other stuff into the midst, like your own body. That isn't a good scenario, so let's prevent that.

# Plan out your cut before making it. Wasting material isn't a good idea, and it's more time consuming when you mess up.

# Be careful not to catch anything in the blade cutting curves.
+
# Don't try to cut too tight of radius. See the blade curve chart before cutting curves.
# Use a push stick if necessary. Do not risk getting your hands too close to the blade .
+
# Use a push stick to keep your fingers at least 3" from the blade.
# Hold work piece firmly on the table. It would be a shame if it flew somewhere and hit someone, then we'd have an interesting lawsuit to deal with...

# Keep hands and fingers out of the "danger zone" in front of the blade.

==Troubleshooting==
 
==Troubleshooting==
 
# Suppose the bandsaw will not start.  
 
# Suppose the bandsaw will not start.  
## Check that the start switch is fully pulled out.  
+
## Check that the E-stop is fully pulled out.
## Check that the yellow safety plug is fully engaged.
+
## Check that the electrical power cord is plugged into the power outlet.
## Check that the electrical power cord is plugged into the power outlet.
  −
## Check that the electrical supply is on (reset the breaker).
  −
## Check that you have the correct power, 110V not 220V
  −
# Suppose the machine will not stop.
  −
## This is a very rare occurrence, as the machine is designed to be fail-safe. If it should occur and you cannot fix the fault, seek professional assistance. The machine must be disconnected from the power and never run until the fault has been rectified.
  −
## Stop switch faulty. Replace the stop switch.
  −
## Internal breaker faulty. Replace the breaker.
  −
# Suppose the motor tries to start but will not turn.
  −
## With the power disconnected from the machine, open the doors and try to turn the wheel by hand. If the wheel is not turning, check the reason for the jamming. Typical reasons are: guides too tight, wood jammed in the wheel. Adjust guides or remove jammed wood.
  −
## Capacitor faulty. Replace the capacitor.
  −
## Motor faulty. Replace the motor.
  −
# Suppose the motor overheats.
  −
## The motor is designed to run very hot, but should it overheat it has an internal terminal overload protector that will shut it down until the motor has cooled down and then it will reset automatically. If the motor overheats, wait until it has cooled down and restart. If the motor shuts down constantly, check for the reason. Typical reasons are dull blade, overfeeding the wood, motor cooling fan clogged or faulty, motor cooling fins clogged and excessive ambient temperature.
  −
# Suppose there's a squeaking noise.
  −
## Check that the motor cooling fan is not contacting the fan cover.
  −
## Check the bearings.
  −
## Check the drive belt.
  −
## Check that the guides are adjusted correctly.
  −
# Suppose the upper guide shaft is tight or loose.
  −
## Clean and lubricate.
  −
## Adjust rack and pinion.
  −
## Bent rack. Replace the rack.
  −
# Suppose the blade slows down during a cut.
  −
## Loose drive belt. Re-tension the belt.
  −
## Dull blade. Replace the blade or have it re-sharpened.
  −
## Feeding the wood too fast. Slow down the feed rate.
  −
## Insufficient set on the teeth (wood nipping the blade). Change blade for a blade with the correct set.
  −
## Oil or dirt on the drive belt. Clean or replace the drive belts.
  −
## Fence not aligned correctly. Align fence.
  −
# Suppose the blade will not track on flywheels.
  −
## Bad blade. Change the blade.
  −
## Crown on the wheels worn or damaged tire. Dress the tires.
  −
# Suppose the blade kicks.
  −
## Bad blade. Replace the blade.
  −
# Suppose the blade makes a clicking noise.
  −
## Bad weld. Dress the weld or change the blade.
  −
# Suppose the blade overheats. 
  −
## Dull blade. Change the blade or resharpen the blade.
  −
## Pitch is too small for the depth of cut. Change to a blade with the correct pitch.
  −
## Guides too tight. Adjust the guides.
  −
## Wood too hard for the selected blade. Change the blade.
  −
## Blade too thick for the diameter of the wheels. Change the blade.
  −
# Machine vibrates.
  −
## Machine not level on the floor. Re-level the machine ensuring that it has no movement.
  −
## Damaged drive belt. Replace the belt.
