•Do not install or use this machine in an explosive, dangerous environment.
MAINTENACNE
•Disconnect machine from power source when making repairs.
•Check damaged parts. Before further use of the saw, a guard or other part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to ensure that it will operate properly and perform its intended
function check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other condition that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is
damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.
•Disconnect tools before servicing and when changing accessories such as blades, bits,
cutters, etc.
•Make sure that the blade tension is properly adjusted. Green LED will light when properly
tensioned. Saw will not operate until green light is lit.
•Re-check blade tension after initial cut with new blade.
•To prolong blade life always releases blade tension at the end of each work day.
•Check coolant daily. Low coolant level can cause foaming and high blade temperatures. Dirty
or weak coolant can clog pump. This can cause low cutting rate and permanent blade failure.
Dirty coolant can cause the growth of bacteria with ensuring skin irritation.
•When cutting magnesium never use soluble oils or emulsions (oil-water mix) as water will
greatly intensify any accidental magnesium chip fire. See your industrial coolant supplier for
specific coolant recommendations when cutting magnesium.
•To prevent corrosion of machined surfaces when a soluble on is used as coolant, pay
particular attention to wiping dry the surfaces where fluid accumulates and does not evaporate
quickly, such as between the machine bed and vise.
SPECIFIC USAGE
-This machine is used for general metals cutting within the range of cutting capacity.

OPERATION STEPS:
•Before use, make sure that the position of the lower limit screw (B) is correct.
•Make sure that the lower limit screw (A) of the saw blade is at the tooth surface of the blade
below the work surface.
•Make sure that the screw position of the lower limit switch is so that the band saw reaches the
lower limit position and the power is turned off immediately to stop the band saw.
1. Turn the on/off control valve (B) on the hydraulic
cylinder to the 90ºposition. Close and lock the
hydraulic cylinder and hold the handle (A) to raise
the saw bow about 5 inches high.
2. Place workpiece between the vice, clamp down to
secure the work, and adjust the height of the bow
up or down to ensure the blade is 1 inch about the
working height.
3. After confirming that the workpiece is clamped, start
the sawing belt. Please select a different cutting
speed according to the material of the workpiece
(refer to next section).
4. Turn the throttle valve of the hydraulic cylinder to the 0 position (clockwise to the
bottom), close the hydraulic cylinder, and then open the on-off valve to the 0-degree
position. At this time, the bow will not drop. (When the on-off valve is opened, the saw
bow will not descend, because the throttle valve is set to 0, closed position) (the throttle
valve at 0 position alone, cannot stop the saw, bow does not lower, it may be oil (Caused
by damage to the cylinder).
5. Slowly open the throttle valve of the hydraulic cylinder (turn counterclockwise) to adjust

the speed of the saw bow and start to approach the workpiece surface to be cut (when
the bandsaw is brand new, please reduce the speed as much as possible The cutting
speed of the saw is about 5-10 minutes. After the teeth of the bandsaw are properly run
in, the normal sawing work is performed)
6. The band saw will cut normally until the bow reaches the lower limit position, the work of
the workpiece is finished, and the bandsaw is automatically stopped.
7. Close the oil cylinder on-off valve, and then manually lift the saw bow away from the
workpiece, loosen the vise to take out the workpiece, and then complete the sawing
work (note the length of the workpiece, to avoid falling directly to the ground after
sawing, resulting in personal or material damage).
OPERATION OF HYDRUALIC CYLINDER
•Saw bow slow-down hydraulic cylinder (Fig.H), which
provides the control of the speed of the saw belt when
cutting the workpiece.
•ON / OFF on / off valve (P), which directly controls the
stop and movement of the hydraulic cylinder.
Generally, when performing repeated sawing of the
workpiece, this function can be used.
•The flow control valve (V) provides the control of the
speed of the saw bow and controls
the speed when sawing the workpiece. Turning clockwise will slow down and turning
counterclockwise will speed up.
Note: When turning clockwise to the end, the saw bow will stop completely. If the slow-down situation
occurs, the hydraulic cylinder may be damaged, please contact the dealer’s technician for inquiries.
CAUTION! When the size and position of the flow valve (V) are unknown, do not directly
open the on-off valve (P), to avoid the saw bow falling rapidly, causing the saw belt
to hit the workpiece and causing tooth damage.

OPERATIONAL CONTROLS
•Emergency button ©. When the emergency button is
pressed, the saw belt will stop. (When returning power, turn
© to make it jump)
•Power button (S), ON / OFF / Power lamp indication, 3
functions.
•The VR rotary button © controls the speed of the bandsaw.
•Speed display (P), you can directly see the current line
speed of the bandsaw.
•Motor overload protection lamp (D). When the feed speed of
the sawing workpiece is too fast, causing the motor to run at
over-rated current, the overload protection lamp © will light
red and slow down the saw belt speed to reduce the motor
load, if the re-cutting is continued continuously, the system
will stop directly and do overload protection.
•Lower limit switch (T), when the saw bow is lowered to the bottom, it will touch the lower limit
screw to stop the saw band.
•Power socket (L), for users to use external work lights or other accessories.
HELPFUL CUTTING TIPS:
1. The more hardness of the material is, the slower the cutting speed.
2. When the saw is stuck on the work piece, please stop the saw action, reverse the saw
belt to slowly withdraw from the work piece, and do not perform the second sawing on
the same sawing path. If the sawing path is repeated, the saw teeth wear will cause
serious damage to the tip of the entire bandsaw and will result is a low quality cut.
3. When the blade speed is high, additional cutting oil is recommended.
4. To control the descending speed of the hydraulic cylinder, you can control the flow of
the throttle valve. Turn clockwise-the flow becomes smaller-the speed becomes
slower, and counterclockwise-the flow becomes larger-the speed becomes faster.
Drop too fast and damage items.
5. When using a new saw blade, it is necessary to carry out a saw-tooth running-in
procedure, which can prolong the service life of the saw blade and increase the sawing
efficiency.
6. When using your band saw always change the blade speed to best suit the material
being cut. The material cutting chart gives suggested setting for several materials.

ADJUSTMENTS
TOOTH SELECTION:
-For maximum cutting efficiency and lowest cost per cut, it is important to select the blade with
the right number of teeth per inch for the material being cut. The material size and shape
dictate tooth selection.
YOU NEED TO CONSIDER:
The width of the cut. That is, the distance in the cut that each tooth must travel from the point it enters
the work piece until it leaves the work piece, and the shape of the work piece. Use the chart above to
assist with tooth selection.
•Squares, Rectangles, Flats (Symbol: ■)
Locate the width of your work piece on the chart. (Inches on the outer circle and millimeters on
the inner circle.) Select the tooth pitch on the ring marked with square which aligns with the
width of the cut.
Example: 6” (150mm) square, use a 2/3 Vari-Tooth.
•Round Solids (Symbol: ●)
Locate the diameter of your work piece on the chart. Select the tooth pitch on the ring marked
with the circle which aligns with the size of stock you are cutting.
Example: 4” (100mm) round, use a 3/4 Vari-Tooth.
•Tubing, Pipe, Structural (Symbols: O, H, ˄)

Dake Corporation
1809 Industrial Park Drive
Grand Haven, MI 49417
www.dakecorp.com
16
983113
REV112020
Determine the average width of cut by dividing the area of the work piece by the distance the
saw blade must travel to finish the cut. Select the tooth pitch on the ring marked with the tubing
and structural shape which aligns with the average width you are cutting.
Example: 4” (100mm) outside diameter, 3” (75mm) inside diameter tubing.
4"(100mm) OD =12.5 in2(79 cm2)
3"(75 mm ) ID = 7.0 in2(44 cm2)
Area = 5.5 in2(35 cm2)
Example: 5.5 in2(35 cm2) / 4" (100mm) distance = 1.38” (35 mm) average width 1.38" (35
mm),
use a 4/6 Vari-Tooth.
BLADE SPEED:
The band speeds are to be used as a starting point for most application. For exact parameters
consult your saw blade supplier.

TELLTALE CHIPS:
Chips are the best indicator of correct feed force. Monitor chip information and adjust feed
accordingly.
Thin or powdery chips – increase feed rate or reduce band speed.
Burned heavy chips – reduce feed rate and/or band speed.
Curly silvery and warm chips – optimum fed rate and band speed.

INSTALLING BLADE:
1. Make sure that the main power switch is off.
2. Raise the saw so that the blade is 1” above the
fixed vise.
3. Open bow cover (B) (C) (D) remove the tooth
cover (E) and remove the steel brush wheel (F)
that is in contact with the bandsaw.
4. Turn the handle (A) counterclockwise to loosen
the tension of the saw belt. Press belt with
gloved hand to prevent blade from popping off
the wheel and injuring the operator or persons
nearby.
5. After the blade is completely relaxed then withdraw the saw wheel
surface and remove blade from the guide block.
6. Take out the new blade and spread out the saw blade. Check to
make sure the seam welds are ground flat and without sharp edges.
7. Put the new saw blade into the guide block, make sure that the back
of the saw blade is in contact with the upper bearing surface.
8. Put the blade surface on the bandsaw wheel and press the blade on
the saw wheel with gloves. Be careful to turn the blade tension
handle (A) clockwise to prevent the blade from popping out in the
process and hurting operator. (Note: Before the blade is fixed by
tension, you must press the blade on the saw wheel with your hands.
If necessary, two people should work together to ensure safety).
9. After the blade is installed, continue to turn the loading handle clockwise until the tension pointer
reaches the standard scale area on the mark.
10.Slowly start the bandsaw, and check whether the back of the blade and the back of the saw
wheel are between 1-2mm, and there is no sound of rubbing on the saw wheel.
11.When the bandsaw can run on the saw wheel at normal speed and without abnormal noise, it
means that the blade has been correctly installed.
12.Install the steel brush wheel (F) against the saw teeth. (Note: Do not press too deep into the tooth
surface, to avoid making excess noise and wearing sharp points of the saw teeth during rotation).
13.Install the tooth cover (E) back on the saw guide, cover the bow cover (B) (C) (D) and fasten it
with screws.
14.Slowly rotate the saw blade wheel to ensure that the saw blade can operate normally and will not
dry out with the saw wheel and the cover. Friction noise will occur.
NOTE: When a new blade is installed, it is necessary to reduce the saws feed rate and allow the
saw to run for 5-10 minutes to increase the life of the blade and have better sawing efficiency.

VERTICAL SAW POSITION:
1. Make sure that the moving wheels of the machine
are fixed, and the machine will not move.
2. Close the on-off valve of the hydraulic cylinder and
put the bow on the table with the handle (A), so
that the saw belt is raised to an angle of about 40
degrees with the table.
3. Loosen the spring bracket, remove the fixing screw
of the weight spring, and remove the weight spring.
4. Raise the saw bow again, so that the back end of
the saw bow rests on the upper threaded screw of
(B), and the bandsaw and the workbench are at an
angle of about 90 degrees, as shown in Fig. 3.
Lastly, open the hydraulic cylinder switch valve.
5. Remove the vertical saw blade (C). Insert the cut
groove into the saw belt. Hold saw blade against the
upper end of the fixing vise, fixed with the screw (D). and the position of the saw blade groove
in the middle of the saw blade rear fixed up right board. The main support arm (F) loosen the
handle and adjust the upper and lower positions so that the support arm (F) can contact the
vertical saw board. Press against the surface of point (C), which can maintain the stability of the
vertical saw board in use.
6. Take out the vertical saw cover (H) and fix it on the slave arm (K) with screws to ensure the
safety protection of the exposed bandsaw.
7. Adjust the up and down position from the support arm (K) to match the height of the workpiece
to be sawed.
8. Clamp the vise surface of the vise (G) and fix it so that it will not shake.
9. Check if there is any foreign matter interference on the moving line of the saw belt.
10.After making sure that it is correct, turn on the power and make the saw belt run at the slowest
speed to see if there is any noise or intervention.
11.When the saw belt can rotate normally, the normal, vertical saw cutting pin can be started.

SAW ADJUSTMENTS
1. Raise the saw to the upward position and
the bandsaw roughly ½” high from the
workpiece as shown in (Fig. 4).
2. Remove the 90ºangle ruler (C) and lean it
against the workpiece surface.
3. Check the saw belt (B) is perpendicular to
the work piece. NOTE: (If the deviation is
large, you can adjust the blade guides
accordingly).
4. First make sure that the bearings (F) and
(G) are in close contact with the bandsaw
surface. (Note: Visually, the bearing surface and the bandsaw surface are in close contact.
Once the bearing can still be rotated freely, it is to ensure that the bearing is not crushed. ,
Easy to cause damage).
5. Adjust the bearing shaft. It can be adjusted with a slotted screwdriver (H) and fixed with a
hexagon wrench (M). (Fig. 6) (Fig. 7)
6. Adjust the bandsaw 90 degrees, you can put the hex wrench (K) to loosen the screw, use the
hex wrench (I) to adjust 90 degrees, and the hex wrench (J) to adjust the gap between the
back of the bandsaw and the upper bearing After finishing the fine adjustment, fix the screw
lock with the hexagon wrench (K). NOTE: (It is necessary
to check and adjust the 90-degree angle between the main
block and the two positions from the guide block at the
same time)
7. The slowest speed of the saw belt can be performed after
the completion to ensure that the rotation of the saw belt
does not cause problems involving abnormal sounds, and
check whether the upper bearing and the back of the saw
blade only maintain proper contact without crushing.
8. After the saw belt has been tested correctly, the tungsten
steel guide block (O) can be fixed on the guide block (C)
with screws (P) to improve the stability of the saw belt when it rotates. (Note: The gap between
the tungsten steel guide block and the saw blade surface must be about 0.1mm (about 1 sheet
of paper) to prevent the tungsten steel from directly scratching the saw blade surface and
causing damage)
