-=== Preparation ===
-  * Ensure there is enough working space around you and that you won't interfere with anyone else working there.
-  * Make sure the teeth are pointing down in the visible area of the blade itself. If the teeth are going upwards, the blade has been installed incorrectly and won't cut the work piece. It can also be dangerous due to the piece being moved unpredictably.
-  * Loosen the guard knob and raise or lower the guard to the height of the work piece. Allow about 1 cm (or less) as tolerance and so that you can actually move the wood through the saw. **Re-tighten the knob so that the guard no longer moves.**
-  * Move the fence to the desired width. There are measurements on the table to give relevant widths. Note that the fence needs to be secured front and back and each end is independent. So, make sure that the fence is positioned correctly **and** securely attached.
-  * Run the bandsaw. Look at all six bearings surrounding the blade. There are three above the table, and three below. They should be close to the blade, but not close enough that the blade moves them. If they are being moved by the blade, or too far from the blade, turn off the bandsaw and adjust them. Ensure that they are tightened in place before cutting any wood.
-  * Adjust the gates on the [[Dust Extractor]] so that there is a direct path to the bandsaw. Turn it on.
