Rearward Direction

2. BLADE TRACKING

Never attempt to adjust the blade tracking with the engine running. As a safety precaution, remove
the spark plug cap. It is also advised to wear gloves and safety glasses when working with the blade
as it is extremely sharp.

The blade should run with the same tooth to band wheel face distance on both sides. 3/8” (9mm) is
ideal. The back of the blade will be flush with the back of the band wheel at this distance and is a
quicker check than measuring with a tape measure. If an adjustment on either side is required, the
steps below will detail this procedure.
