I suppose your insurance company will deny a claim if you burn your
house down due to a non-UL Listed device.
Having said that... Plugging a lower-current device into a
higher-current receptacle is done every day. The overcurrent
protection on the band saw should protect it, while the breaker will
protect the wiring to the receptacle.
It's not likely that you will let your band saw run unattended, anyway.
