BANDSAW TROUBLE SHOOTING/ACCESSORIES
Bandsaws are relatively simple machines and
with all machinery regular servicing (preventative
maintenance) is essential to get the best from your
saw.
Trouble Shooting
• This is the most common question that
you will get from bandsaw users. Usually
the answer lies within the blade; poor
quality blades with uneven set, the blade
is blunt or damaged often only on one
side, the tooth count is far too high for
the material being cut -remember 2
teeth minimum and 10 teeth maximum
in the workpiece.
• The fence is out of line with the blade.
‘My bandsaw
won’t cut
straight”
• Clean machine wheels.
• Check blade is running correctly on
wheels.
• Check blade weld – is it in line?
• Check machine is not on an uneven floor.
“My bandsaw
vibrates”
• No , most woodcutting bandsaws run
far too fast to cut steel even if a metal
cutting blade is fitted.
“Can I cut steel
on my
bandsaw?”
• Check drive belt is tensioned correctly.
• If cutting hard or wet material slow
your feed rate down.
• Check blade is sharp and not too fine.
• Make sure that when curve cutting a
narrow blade is used- see unit 5 blade
and cutter types.
