Adjusting the Upper Blade Guide Bearings Parallel to the Blade
(Refer to page 19 parts diagram)
This step may not be necessary, it is factory preset. If adjustment is needed follow the steps
below.
First slightly loosen part #137 (4 each) cap screw on rear of upper Bandsaw housing (see page 19
in parts diagram). This will allow you to adjust the micro adjustment screws on part #143 (Guide
Bracket).
Next place a 3mm “L” wrench through one of the holes in part #139 (Guide Bracket Cover).
Turning clockwise on the left two holes will adjust the left bearings to the right. Turning clockwise
on the right two holes will adjust the right bearings to the left. Check bearings for parallel.
Lastly tighten parts #137 (4) on back of Bandsaw. Repeat steps if the bearings are still not
parallel.
Adjust Upper Bearings Which Will Not Track Close to the Blade
(Refer to page 19 parts diagram)
If the right or left upper bearings do not adjust to within 1/32” of the blade, the guide post (part
#129) may need adjustment.
First slightly loosen parts #137 (4) on the back of the upper Bandsaw cabinet.
Next slide the upper guide post right or left until bearings are properly spaced on each side of
blade. Tighten part #137 (4) on the back of the upper Bandsaw cabinet.

turn the micro-screws with the 2.5mm ”L” wrench counter clockwise to lower the insert. If the
insert is sitting below the table, turn the micro-screws clockwise to raise the insert level with the
table.
Caution:
Having the insert below the top of the table could cause the workpiece to get stuck on
