G0504 16" Horizontal Resaw Bandsaw -41-
Blade Tracking and
Wheel Alignment
Blade tracking on the Model G0504 consists
of adjusting the wheels to be nearly coplanar
(coplanar=both wheels even and parallel), but
having the outside edge of the wheel approxi-
mately 0.020"-0.040" behind the inside edge of
the wheel to compensate for wheel toe-in when
the blade is fully tensioned.
Because of the large size of this machine and
the wheel toe-in factor, this procedure is time
consuming and requires a great deal of trial and
error. Make sure you really need to perform this
procedure before attempting it.
Also, to complete this procedure you will need to
make four precision gauge blocks and have a 6'
long straightedge.
To adjust the wheels to be coplanar:
1. Disconnect the resaw from the power
source!
2.
Open the wheel cover.
3.
Remove the blade.
4.
Using 2x4’s, make four precision gauge
blocks to the specifications shown in Figure
43
.

position on wheels.

ing the upper portion of the wheels.
5. Clamp the gauge blocks to the wheels as
shown in
Figure 44
.
6. Place the straightedge across the top of the
gauge blocks, as shown in
Figure 45
, and
examine how the wheels line up with each
other.
