Tensioning The Blade
See Figure 3-6.
Turn the blade tension handle clockwise to compress the rubber spring and tension the
blade. Check the blade tension occasionally when adjusting the cant control or while cutting. As the blade
and belts heat up and stretch, the blade tension will change. Also, ambient temperature changes can cause
tension to change. Adjust the tension handle as necessary to keep the rubber spring washer aligned with the
indicator.
CAUTION!
Release the blade tension when the mill is not in use.
