9-7.BLADE AND COOLING SYSTEM
The use of proper cutting fluid is essential to obtain maximum efficiency
from a band saw blade. The main cause of tooth failure is excessive heat
build-up. This is the reason that cutting fluid is necessary for long blade
life and high cutting rates. cutting area and blade wheels should be kept
clean at all time.
The rate of coolant flow is controlled by the stop valve lever (A) (fig. 4),
which directs the coolant onto the blade. The lever (A) is shown in the
off position.
