REMOVING/INSTALLING THE BLADE
Your bandsaw is designed to handle several blade widths ranging from 1/4” and 3/8” used for tight radius curves,
up to 1/2” and 3/4” for larger radius curves or for cutting thicker stock.
To remove a blade:
1. Turn off the bandsaw and unplug the power cord.
2. Make sure there is maximum clearance between the blade
and both upper and lower bearing assemblies. (If needed,
refer back to section “Blade Clearance”).
3. Pull up on the tension lever toward the left (90º position)
to loosen the tension on the blade. It may be neces-
sary to also turn the tension knob counter-clockwise
for the blade to be loose enough to remove easily
Before replacing or adjusting the blade, make sure the switch is in the “OFF” position and that the power cord is unplugged.
Note: For blade tension quick release, pull up on the tension le-
ver toward the left (90º position
) .
For quick blade tensioning,
push the tension lever down
(0º position
)
.
To avoid damaging the tensioning mechanism never force the
tension lever beyond 90º vertical
or 0º horizontal .
