Changing The Sawblade; Blade Tracking Adjustment - Jet JWBS-16X Mode D'emploi

C- Hooked tooth:
Large teeth and a positive rake angle, for aggressive, faster
cutting.
For resawing and ripping thick stock, especially hard woods.
D- Variable tooth:
Variable tooth shape and spacing produces smooth cuts and
dampens vibrations.
Set:
Saw teeth are bent out of the plane of the saw body, resulting
in a wide cut in the workpiece.
This helps reduce friction and allows curve cuts).
The alternate set (Y, Fig 14) is the most used for
woodworking blades.

7.2 Changing the sawblade

Check sawblade for flaws (cracks, broken teeth, bending)
before installation. Do not use faulty sawblades.
The sawblade teeth must point in cutting direction (down)
Always wear suitable gloves when handling sawblades.
To remove the blade:
Open the wheel covers.
Remove the table insert (R, Fig 20) and the table pin (G).
Release the blade tension by operating the quick blade
tension lever (Q, Fig 19) and by turning the blade tension
handwheel (N).
After the new saw blade is installed, tighten the sawblade
sufficiently. Follow the scale (R).

7.3 Blade tracking adjustment

Blade tracking shall never be performed when the machine is
running.
The sawblade must run on the centre of the rubber tyres (Fig
