BLADE GUIDES
The blade guides provide side-to-side support to help keep the blade straight while cutting.
The blade guides are designed to be adjusted in two ways
—
forward/backward and
side-to-side.
To adjust the upper and lower blade guides:
DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER!
1. Make sure the blade is tracking properly
and that it is correctly tensioned.
2. Loosen the cap screw(A) on the lateral
adjustment rod and adjust the blade
guides until the edges of the bearings are
1/16" behind the blade gullets, as
illustrated in
Figure 2
.
Note:
The 1/16" spacing is ideal, although
with larger blades it may not be possible. In
such cases, adjust the guide bearings as far
forward as possible to the blade gullets, and
still maintain the proper support bearing
spacing
ġ
adjustment.
Note: Make sure that the blade teeth will
not contact the guide bearings when the
blade is against the rear support bearing
during the cut or the blade teeth will be
ruined.
3.
Tighten the cap screw on the lateral
adjustment rod.
