4. Configuración y montaje
The Scheppach HBS25 Bandsaw comes largely pre-assembled. Follow these steps for final setup:
- Desembalaje: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Check for any shipping damage or missing parts. Refer to the packing list for included items (Bandsaw, Parallel fence, Crosscut gauge, Push stick).
- Colocación: Place the bandsaw on a stable, level workbench or stand. Ensure there is sufficient space around the machine for safe operation and material handling.
- Table Assembly (if required): If the work table is not pre-attached, secure it according to the instructions, ensuring it is level and stable.
- Instalación/comprobación de la cuchilla: The saw blade is typically pre-installed. Verify that the blade is correctly tensioned and aligned within the ball-bearing guides. Adjust if necessary (refer to blade tensioning section in operating).
- Parallel Fence and Crosscut Gauge: Familiarize yourself with the attachment and adjustment of the parallel fence and crosscut gauge. The parallel fence features a quick-release fastener for easy locking.
- Conexión de extracción de polvo: Connect a suitable dust extraction system to the machine's dust port. This is crucial for maintaining a clean work environment and clear visibility.
- Conexión de energía: Plug the machine into a grounded power outlet. Ensure the power switch is in the "OFF" position before connecting.
5. Instrucciones de funcionamiento
5.1 Funcionamiento básico
- Encendido: Press the green "ON" button on the dust-proof safety switch to start the motor.
- Apagado: Press the red "OFF" button to stop the motor. In an emergency, the large red button can be pressed for immediate shutdown.
- Velocidad de la cuchilla: The HBS25 operates at a fixed blade speed of 880 m/min, suitable for a wide range of wood materials.
5.2 Técnicas de corte

Figura 5.1: Illustrates the versatility of the HBS25 bandsaw, capable of performing ripping cuts (straight cuts along the grain), precise angle cuts, and intricate curve cuts.

Figura 5.2: Demonstrates the HBS25 bandsaw in action, showing how it can optimally process both soft and hardwood. Always use appropriate safety measures and guides when cutting.
5.2.1 Ripping Cuts (Straight Cuts)
- Adjust the parallel fence to the desired width. Ensure it is securely locked using the quick-release fastener.
- Place the workpiece against the fence and gently feed it into the blade. Use the push stick for the final portion of the cut.
5.2.2 Angle Cuts (Miter Cuts)

Figura 5.3: The continuously tiltable saw table of the HBS25, allowing for easy and quick implementation of angle cuts up to 45 degrees. This feature is essential for miter cuts.

Figura 5.4: The stable and spacious work table (300 x 300 mm) of the HBS25, which is ideal for safely handling extra large workpieces and provides ample support during cutting operations.
- Loosen the table locking knob and tilt the work table to the desired angle (up to 45°). Securely tighten the knob.
- Use the crosscut gauge or a suitable jig to guide the workpiece through the blade at the set angle.
5.2.3 Curve Cuts (Contour Cutting)

Figura 5.5: Examples of delicate sawing work that can be effortlessly achieved with the HBS25, thanks to its compatibility with various saw blade widths (7-12mm) allowing for precise contour cutting.
- For curve cuts, remove the parallel fence.
- Select a narrower blade (e.g., 7mm) for tighter curves.
- Slowly feed the workpiece into the blade, guiding it along the desired curve. Avoid forcing the material.
5.3 Blade Tension and Tracking
Proper blade tension and tracking are crucial for accurate cuts and blade longevity. The HBS25 features ball-bearing blade guides for exact results.
- Ajuste de tensión: Use the tension knob (usually at the top of the machine) to apply appropriate tension to the blade. The blade should be taut but not overly tight.
- Ajuste de seguimiento: Adjust the blade tracking wheel (often at the back or side of the upper wheel) so the blade runs centrally on the rubber tires of the wheels.
- Guide Adjustment: Position the blade guides (both upper and lower) close to the blade without touching it when idle. They should support the blade just behind the teeth.
6. Mantenimiento
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Scheppach HBS25 Bandsaw.
- Limpieza: After each use, disconnect the power and clean the machine, especially the work table, blade guides, and dust collection port. Remove sawdust and debris using a brush or vacuum cleaner.
- Inspección de la hoja: Regularly inspect the saw blade for sharpness, damage, or cracks. Replace dull or damaged blades immediately.
- Guías de cuchillas: Check the ball-bearing blade guides for wear and proper alignment. Clean any accumulated sawdust from the guides.
- Wheel Tires: Inspect the rubber tires on the band wheels for wear or damage. Worn tires can affect blade tracking.
- Lubricación: Apply a light coat of wax or dry lubricant to the work table to reduce friction and prevent rust. Consult the manual for any specific lubrication points for moving parts.
- Sistema de recolección de polvo: Regularly empty the dust bag or container of your external dust extraction system. Ensure the connection to the bandsaw is clear and unobstructed.
- Componentes eléctricos: Periodically check the power cord and plug for damage. Ensure the safety switch operates correctly.
