Tool Less Blade Guide System features quick adjusting, spring loaded, ball bearing blade guides for fast and easy setting to the blades.
Blade Tensioning Quick Release Device
Blade Tensioning Quick Release Device
Lever to ensure quick release of blade tensioning when not in use to help prevent blade stretching and deforming the band saw tyres, which are likely made of rubber or urethane. A stretched blade will cause the operator to increase blade tension to compensate, increasing blade break risk.
De-tensioning your blade will extend the life of your blade.

Table Fence Construction
150mm High Aluminium Rip Fence with Solid Round Bar Guide Rail and Solid Cast Locking Mechanism - Fence can be fitted to either side of the work table.
Mitre Gauge Included
Mitre Gauge Included
A mitre gauge is a device used for holding workpieces at a set angle while being cut on table saws, bandsaws or sanded on stationary disc sanders. The mitre gauge slides in a slot on the worktable (known as a mitre slot) on the machine being used.
Push Stick Included
Drift Bar
Drift Bar
The drift bar acts as a thickness gauge and adjusts the angle of cut with the scribed line, ensuring a uniform thickness without putting undue strain on the blade.

Emergency Stop Mushroom Foot Switch
Emergency Stop Mushroom Foot Switch
An Emergency Stop Mushroom Foot Switch is a type of safety switch used in industrial and commercial settings to quickly and easily shut off power to machinery or other equipment in an emergency situation. It typically has a large, mushroom-shaped button that can be easily activated with the foot, allowing workers to stop equipment quickly without having to reach for a switch or control panel. The switch is often red and has a distinctive shape to make it easily recognizable and to promote quick action in an emergency.
Foot Operated Brake
Foot Operated Brake
The foot operated brake mechanism is a safety feature on a machine whereby a brake is supplied with the machine. The brake is operated by applying the foot pedal. When the foot pedal is
applied, the power is removed from the motor.
In the case of a bandsaw foot operated brake the flywheel is slowed by the disc break when the power is removed from the motor when the brake is applied by foot.

NVR (No Volt Release) Switch
A no volt release (NVR) switch is valuable safety feature for power tools and machinery. If the power is cut, the unit will default to off, so the machinery will not automatically start again when the power is restored.
Rack & Pinion Blade Guide Height Adjustment
Rack & Pinion Blade Guide Height Adjustment
Rack and pinions are a mechanical device consisting of a bar (the rack), having teeth on one side that mesh with teeth on a small gear (the pinion) and are used for lifting mechanisms (vertical movement), horizontal movement, positioning mechanisms, stoppers and to permit the synchronous rotation of several shafts in general industrial machinery.
On machine tools, rack and pinion mechanisms are used to obtain rapid movements of worktables.
