The Surround Guide System uses ceramic to support and guide the blade. This
has many advantages, (very poor conductor of heat, very resistant to wear, etc.).
The disadvantage is that it is brittle, so the guides must never be dropped, exposed
to hard knocks or hit with hard objects. Any of the above actions may cause the
ceramic to chip or break and will detract from the performance of the surround
guide system. Any mistreatment of the guide system will render the warranty null
and void. The side guide blocks must be tightened before running the machine to
avoid jamming the blade and damaging the machine and/or guide blocks.
7.
When cutting gummy or green wood, the blade can become covered with resin.
You will find that with the Surround Guide System the ceramic blocks remove the
resin as the blade is moved through the guide blocks and keep your blade clean
over that part of the blade. For this reason it is recommended that the blocks be
adjusted close to the teeth of the blade but must not contact them as the ceramic
will break or dull the teeth.
8.
Be sure to release the blade tension when finished working or at night.
Blade Tensioning Procedure
Remove the aluminum throat plate and wooden baffle. Move the upper and lower
blade guides back so that they are
NOT
in contact with the blade.
1.
Install blade onto both tires.
a.
If blade is narrower than ¾”, center blade on tires.
b.
If blades are ¾” or wider, install with blade teeth hanging over the
tires.
2.
Apply partial tension until blade stays on tires.
3.
Look at upper wheel as thought it is a clock, at 9’O clock position, measure 3”
down on the blade. Apply pressure using (1) finger to deflect blade towards
frame of saw.
a.
Narrow blades: (up to 3/8” ) Blade deflects ¼”
b.
Medium blades: (1/2, ¾) Blade deflects 3/16”
After setting the tension, then adjust tracking to maintain position on wheel assy using
the tracking knob at the back of the bandsaw. Rotate wheels by hand before starting to
ensure blade tracking/tension are correct.
