Blade Lead
Bandsaw blades may wander off the cut line when
sawing, as shown in
Figure 74. This is called
blade lead.
Blade lead is usually caused by too fast of a
feed rate, a dull or abused blade, or improper
blade tension. If your blade is sharp/undamaged,
properly tensioned, and you still have blade lead,
perform the following procedures.
To correct blade lead:
1. Make sure the blade is properly tensioned
and the blade guides are adjusted correctly.
Figure 74. Example of blade lead.
2. Use less pressure when feeding the workpiece
through the cut.
3. Make sure the miter slot and fence are paral-
lel to the blade line (see the
Aligning Table
and Aligning Fence procedures in this man-
ual for detailed information).
4. Perform a test cut with the bandsaw.
— If there is still blade lead present, compen-
sate for this condition by skewing the fence
or shifting the table, as instructed in the
following procedures.
