BLADE TRACKING
Blade tracking should be set so that the blade overhangs the front of each of the wheels by 0.180” to 0.200” (4.5mm to
5mm) measured from the tip of the teeth to the face of the wheel. Tracking is preset from the factory and normally should
not need adjustment unless a wheel has been replaced. Before attempting adjustment of the tracking, inspect the blade
wheels & wheel bearings for wear or damage and repair as required. Improper blade tension can also affect tracking.
Blade tracking adjustment should always begin at the wheel where the tracking is farthest out of specification. Using the
following instructions, adjust the worst wheel, jog the blade and check both wheels. Repeat this process until both wheels
are within specification.
DRIVE WHEEL TRACKING ADJUSTMENT
The drive wheel has 4 adjusting bolt assemblies. The bolt assemblies work in pairs to adjust tracking as seen below.
Adjustments should be made with the blade tension released slightly.
Loosen mounting bolts “A” and turn adjusting bolts “B” in or out by equal amounts, and then re-tighten bolts “A”.
Turning clockwise the top 2 adjusting bolts “B” will push the blade off the wheel.
Turning clockwise the bottom 2 adjusting bolts “B” will pull the blade onto the wheel.
NOTE:
Both of the adjusting bolt assemblies should be turned by equal amounts.
Check the tracking movement after each one-quarter turn of bolts “B” by running the blade at minimum speed.
When the tracking is within specification, tighten bolts “A” and recheck the tracking.
