[NOTE: Procedures for the model 8014FW and
the model 8020FW are identical except where
noted.]
Blade Removal and Installation
Wear leather gloves when
removing or installing band saw blades. New
blades usually come in a coiled position; to
prevent injury, hold the blade with one hand
while carefully uncoiling it with the other.
1. Disconnect machine from power source.
2. Open upper and lower doors.
3. Loosen tension on the blade by turning the
tension handwheel (Figures 6 and 7) to the
left.
4. Remove the worn blade and install the new
blade, making sure the teeth face downward
where they pass through the slot in the
table.
5. Use the tension handwheel to tighten the
tension on the blade.
6. Proceed with “Blade Tension” and “Blade
Tracking” before operating the band saw.
Guide Post
For effective cutting and for safety’s sake, there
should be a minimum amount of space between
the top of the workpiece and the bottom of the
blade guides. Loosen the guide post lock knob
(see Figure 6) and use the handle (handwheel
on 8020FW) to move the guide post, until the
guides clear the workpiece by about 1/8”.
Retighten the lock knob.
Blade Tension
1. Raise the guide post to its highest position.
2. Apply finger pressure to the blade. Travel
from vertical should be approximately 3/8”
each way.
3. Rotate blade tension handwheel (Figures 6
and 7) to the right to increase tension on the
blade, or to the left to decrease tension on
the blade.
[NOTE: The Model 8020FW has a tension
gauge, shown in Figure 7. Initially, set the
tension to correspond to the width of the
blade as indicated on the gauge. You may
later find it necessary to “fine-tune” this
setting depending upon the material being
worked.]
