Noise/Vibration Information
Sound emission values determined according to
EN 60745-2-20.
Typically the A-weighted noise levels of the product are:
Sound pressure level 86 dB(A); Sound power level 97 dB(A).
Uncertainty K =3 dB.

The vibration level given in this information sheet has been
measured in accordance with a standardised test given in
EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with anoth-
er. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration emission level represents the main ap-
plications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different
applications, with different accessories or insertion tools or is
poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This
may significantly increase the exposure level over the total
working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also
take into account the times when the tool is switched off or
when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may sig-
nificantly reduce the exposure level over the total working
period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator
from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the
accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work pat-
terns.

Assembly
Avoid unintentional starting of the machine. During as-
sembly and for all work on the machine, the power plug
must not be connected to the mains supply.
Inserting/Replacing the Band-saw Blade
Always wear protective gloves when mounting the
band-saw blade. Danger of injury when touching the
band-saw blade.
Always wear safety goggles. Safety goggles will reduce
the risk of injuries.
Selecting a Band-saw Blade
An overview of recommended band-saw blades can be found
at the end of these instructions.
Inserting/Replacing the Band-saw Blade
(see Fig. A1 – A4)
– Swing the lever 15 by 180° to release the pre-
tension on the band-saw blade 12.
– Unscrew the two cross-head screws 16 and fold up the
GCB 120
cover 17.

/II
– Guide the band-saw blade 12 step by step around the two
rollers 20.
– Swing the lever 15 by 180° to tension the
band-saw blade 12.
– Check whether the band-saw blade 12 is positioned cor-
rectly around both rollers 20. Fold down the cover 17 and
tighten both cross-head screws 16.
Check that the band-saw blade 12 is seated correctly.
Switch the power tool on and off two or three times to
ensure that the band-saw blade is running correctly in
the saw blade guides. If the band-saw blade is not mount-
ed correctly, it can come undone and injure you.
