9.
Tighten quick release lever until
blade does no longer slip off the
band saw wheels.
10. Close lower blade guard .
A
Danger!
Close housing doors only
when the lower blade guard is in its

Aligning the Band Saw
Blade
If the band saw blade does not run in the
centre of the rubber tyres, the tracking
needs to be corrected by adjusting the
tilt of the upper band saw wheel:
1.
Loosen lock nut
(77)
.
2.
Turn setting knob
(78)
:
Turn setting knob
(78)
clockwise
if the band saw blade runs
towards the front of the saw.
Turn setting knob
(78)
counter-
clockwise if the band saw blade
runs towards the rear of the saw.
3.
Tighten lock nut
(77)
.
8.3
Aligning the Upper Blade
Guide
The upper blade guide consists of:
a thrust bearing (supporting the
band saw blade from the rear),
two guide bearings (providing lateral
support).
All bearings need to be readjusted after
every band saw blade change and/or
tracking adjustment.
3
Note:
Periodically check all bearings for
wear, if necessary replace both guide
bearings at the same time.
Adjusting the thrust bearing
1.
If necessary, align and tighten the
band saw blade.
2.
Loosen fixing screw
(79)
of the
upper blade guide.
3.
Align upper blade guide
4.
Tighten the upper blade guide's fix-
ing screw.
5.
Loosen the thrust bearing's
(81)
lock
screw
(80)
.
6.
Adjust thrust bearing position (dis-
tance thrust bearing - band saw
blade = 0.5 mm – if the band saw
blade is turned by hand, it must not
touch the thrust bearing).
7.
Tighten the thrust bearing lock
screw.
Adjusting the guide bearings
1.
Loosen knurled nut
(83)
.
2.
Set guide bearings
(84)
with the
knurled thumb screws
(82)
against
the band saw blade.
3.
Turn band saw wheel by hand in a
clockwise direction several times to
bring the guide bearings in correct
position – both guide bearings
should just touch the band saw
blade.
4.
Retigthen knurled nut
(83)
to lock
the knurled thumb screw
(82)
.
8.4
Aligning the Lower Blade
Guide
The lower blade guide consists of:
a thrust bearing (supporting the
band saw blade from the rear),
two guide bearings (providing lateral
support).
These parts need to be readjusted after
every band saw blade change or track-
ing adjustment:
3
Note:
Periodically check thrust bearings
and guide bearings for wear, if neces-
sary replace both guide bearings at the
same time.
Basic alignment
1.
Open lower housing door and the
lower blade guard
(85)
