2. TEnSIOnIng ThE BLadE (See Fig. B1&B2)
CauTIOn! Remove the tension from the blade if the
bandsaw is not going to be used for some time. be sure
to re-tension the blade before you start the machine.
Turn the tightening screw (9) for tensioning the blade
(26) in a clockwise direction.
The correct blade tension can be checked by applying
pressure to the side of the blade with your finger,
somewhere in the middle between the two blade
pulleys (7 + 8). You should only be able to bend the
blade (26) very slightly (approx. 1-2mm).
ImPORTanT! The blade may break if the tension is too
high. BEWARE OF INJURY! If the tension is too low, the
powered blade pulley (7) will spin while the blade does
not move.
3. adjuSTIng ThE BLadE
CauTIOn! The blade tension has to be set correctly
before you can adjust the blade.
Undo the fasteners (13) and open the side cover (12).
slowly turn the upper blade pulley (8) clockwise by
hand. The blade (26) should run in the middle of the
pulley. If It does not, you will have to adjust the tilt of
the upper blade pulley (8).
If the blade(26) tends to run to the back of the blade
pulley (8), turn the setting screw (22) anti-clockwise
while turning the blade pulley (8) by hand until the
blade (26) runs in the middle.
If the blade(26) tends to run to the front edge of
the blade pulley (8), turn the setting screw (22) in a
clockwise direction.
After setting the upper blade pulley (8) you need
to check the blade (26) position on the lower blade
pulley(7). The blade (26) should run in the middle of the
blade pulley (7). as above. If It does not, you will have to
adjust the tilt of the upper blade pulley (8) again.
Turn the upper blade pulley several times until the
adjustment to the upper blade pulley (8) has an effect
on the blade position of the lower blade pulley(7).
After any adjustments have been carried out, the side
covers (12) must be closed again and resecured with
the fasteners (13).
4. SETTIng ThE BLadE guIdE (See Fig. C-F)
Whenever you change the blade you must re-set both
the support bearings (30 + 31) and the Guide pins (28
+ 29).
Undo the Fasteners (13) and open the side Cover (12).
4.1. upper support bearing (30)
Undo the screw(33).
Move the support bearing(30) so that it is no longer
touching the blade (26). There should be a maximum
gap of 0.5 mm.
Re-tighten the screw (33).
4.2. adjusting the lower support bearing (31)
Dismantle the saw Table (15).
swing the blade Guard (34) away.
Adjust in the same way that the upper support bearing
was adjusted.
The blade (26) is only supported by the support
bearings (30 + 31) during cutting. When idle the blade
should not touch the ball bearing.
4.3. adjustIng the upper guide Pins (28)
Undo the Allen screw(35)
Move the Mount (36) of the Guide pins (28) so that there
is a gap of approx. 1 mm between the front edge of the
Guide pins (28) and the gullet of the blade in front
Re-tighten the Allen screw(35).
CauTIOn! The blade will be rendered useless if the
teeth touch the guide pins while the blade is running.
Undo the Allen screws(37).
Move the Guide pins (28) towards the blade so that
there is a gap of approx. 0.5 mm between the Guide
Pins (28) and the blade (26). The blade must not jam.
Turn the Upper blade pulley (8) several times in a
clockwise direction.
Check the setting of the Guide pins (28) again and re-
adjust if necessary.
4.4. adjusting the Lower guide Pins (29)
Dismantle the saw Table (15).
Undo the screw(40).
Move the Mount (48) of the Guide pins (29) so that there
is a gap of approx. 1 mm between the front edge of the
Guide pins (28) end the gullet of the blade in front.
Re-tighten the Allen screws (40).
CauTIOn! The blade will be rendered useless if the
teeth touch the Guide pins while the blade is running.
Re-tighten the Allen screws (38).
Move the Guide pins (29) towards the blade so that
there is a gap of approx. 0.5 mm between the Guide
Pins (29) and the Blade (26). The blade must not jam.
Re-tighten the Allen screws (38).
Tum the Lower blade pulley (7) several times in a
clockwise direction.
Check the setting of the Guide pins (29) again and
