9. Work the blade all the way up between the blade
guide bearings with the back of the blade against
the back-up bearing, as shown in Fig.2.
Note:
If bearings need adjustment, refer to the
section adjusting blade guide roller
bearings.
10. Put light tension on the blade and work it on both
wheels, as shown in Fig.3. Make sure that the
back of the blade is against the wheel flanges of
both wheels. This is very important.
11. When you are sure the back of the blade is
against the wheel flanges of both wheels and
properly inserted into the guides, finish putting
tension on the blade.
Proper tension is achieved when the pointer is on
the left mark of the blade tension scale behind the
fly wheel.
12. Jog the power
“on” and “off” to be sure the blade
is in place and tracking properly. If blade is not
tracking properly refer to the section tracking the
blade.
Starting and Stopping the Machine
The saw frame must be in the raised position before
starting the machine. The machine is started by
pushing the start button (A) Fig.4, and will continue to
run until the saw frame is in the down position at the
end of the cut, or when the stop button (B) is pushed.
Pushing the stop button (B) will stop the motor at any
time.
