Tracking the blade.
Tracking position of the blade on the wheels.
There are different opinions
on the position that the blade
should be on the wheels. One group of people
recommends that with large blades you should track the
blade so that the teeth hang just over the front edge of the
rubber. The second group recommends that all blades,
regardless of their size, should run in the center of the
wheel. The advantage of running the large blades with the
teeth not contacting the rubber of the wheel is that they
cannot damage the tire. The disadvantage is that the
wheel is crowned and the blade is not tensioned in the
center of the band, which gives the blade a tendency to
wobble or flutter. The advantage of running large blades
on the center of the wheels is that they are tensioned in
the center of the band and have fewer tendencies to
wobble and flutter. The disadvantage is that blades with a
large set on the teeth have a tendency to damage the
rubber of the tire. This does not have a great effect on the
performance of the bandsaw, as all blades are running on
the center section of the tire, which is not affected. We
recommend that you balance all blades on the center of
the wheels for optimum performance and a smoother cut.
1.
To track the blade, s
tart rotating the wheels by hand in
the normal direction. As you do this, watch the blade to
determine where the blade wants to track. If the blade is
tracking too far forward or backward, make small
adjustments with the tracking adjustment knob located at
the back of the bandsaw while stil
l
rotating the wheel.
Once the blade is tracking in the correc
t
position, fully tension the blade and re-track
.
Lock the
tracking adjustment handle.
