7.5 Blade tracking adjustment
Warning:
Blade tracking adjustment requires
running the saw with the wheel
cover open. This adjustment must
be completed by qualified persons
only.
Failure to comply may cause
serious injury!
The blade tracking has been set at the
factory and should not need
adjustments.
Confirm that the blade tension is set
properly.
Run the saw at lowest speed.
The blade should run next to but not
tightly against the wheel flange.
If blade tracking needs to be adjusted
loosen the blots (A, Fig 14).
Tracking adjustment is accomplished
by either loosening or tightening the
adjusting nut (B).
