Metabo BAS 261 Precision prijenosna tračna pila – 400 W (619008000)

The Metabo BAS 261 Precision is a vertical band saw designed for accurate cutting in woodworking environments. It is powered by an induction motor with a maximum idle speed of 1470 RPM and delivers an output power suitable for light to medium-duty cutting tasks. The machine offers a cutting height of 10.3 cm and a cutting width of 24.5 cm, while the work table measures 32.8 cm by 33.5 cm to accommodate a variety of workpieces. With an input power of 400 W and compact dimensions, the band saw is intended for workshops where precision and a stable cutting platform are required.

Advantages

The vertical design and steady induction motor provide consistent blade speed for controlled cuts and long blade life. The combination of 10.3 cm cutting height and 24.5 cm cutting width covers common small- to medium-sized woodworking tasks, while the 32.8 x 33.5 cm table gives a stable surface for accurate guiding of workpieces. Low-noise operation and efficient power conversion from 400 W input to 270 W output make the tool suitable for use in hobbyist and small professional shops where predictable performance and reliability are needed.

Suitable for

• Resawing thin boards and trimming small workpieces in woodworking projects
• Cutting curves and shapes in soft and hardwoods for furniture components and model making
• Small-scale joinery and prototype work where controlled precision is required
• Workshops and training environments that require a compact, table-mounted band saw

How to use

Secure the band saw on a stable bench or stand and ensure the work area is clear. Fit an appropriate blade for the material and tension it to the manufacturer's recommended setting. Adjust the table and fence to the desired angle and position, and set the cutting height and guide to match the workpiece. Switch the machine on and allow the induction motor to reach steady speed before gently feeding the workpiece into the blade, maintaining steady pressure and following the intended cut line. After cutting, switch off the saw and wait for the blade to stop completely before removing offcuts or making adjustments.

Recommendations

Use blades matched to the material type and thickness to preserve cutting quality and blade life. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as eye protection and hearing protection. Regularly check blade tension and table alignment, and remove dust buildup from the table and blade guides to maintain cutting accuracy and prolong tool life.
