BLADE GUIDES / BEARING SETTING
The upper and lower blade guides
need to be re-adjusted after any
blade change or tracking
adjustment.
This task may be easier if the table is
tilted for better access.
1. Loosen the set-screws (A) and
position the guide pins 0.5 mm
from the blade. Tighten the set
screws.
.
2. Loosen the socket-headed bolt (B) and adjust guide pin carrier position, so
that guide pins are positioned 1- 2mm from teeth of blade. Retighten the
socket-headed bolt (B).
3. Loosen the socket-headed bolt (C), and adjust the thrust bearing to a
position of 0.5mm from rear edge of the blade. Retighten the bolt (C).
4. Repeat the process with the lower blade guide located in the lower
section of the bandsaw.
•
Note that the lower guide assembly is identical but installed upside-down.
and that access to the socket-headed bolts (B and C) is through the holes
provided.
