What Is a Saw Operator?

A saw operator uses saws and a variety of machines to cut wood and other plastic materials. As a saw operator, your job duties involve setting up and inspecting equipment, installing blades, measuring the length to cut to specifications, and operating the machines. You must have experience with all relevant tools, including position guides and holding blocks. This career requires familiarity with both automatic and manual saws. Additional qualifications include work experience with general machinery, woodworking skills, and good physical stamina. Although not an educational requirement for this job, many technical colleges offer associate degree programs in related fields.

How to Become a Saw Operator

The qualifications that you need to start a career as a saw operator include a high school diploma and the technical skills to operate saw equipment. Employers have different requirements for job applicants depending on the industry in which they work. Most employers prefer you to have previous experience but provide on-the-job training to entry-level employees. Regardless of your position, you need to undergo safety training and must have the physical ability to operate equipment and lift and position materials that you cut. You also need math skills to perform measurements and make cuts in a way that limits waste.
