ADJUST THE BLADE GUIDE BEARINGS
A crooked cut may be the result of misaligned blade guides or uneven wear on
the Saw Blade (#66). Install and test a new saw blade to eliminate a dull blade
as the cause of the problem, before adjusting the Blade Guide Bearings (#72).
1. Check that the Blade Guide Bracket
Seats (#67, 74) are clear of the Saw Blade.
There should be from 0.000 in. (just
touching) to 0.001 in. clearance between
the Saw Blade and Blade Guide
Bearings (Fig. 18).
2. Adjust the Outer Blade Guide
Bearings (Fig. 18-1) that are mounted to the
Eccentric Shafts (#76) by loosening the
nuts (#5) while holding the Blade
Guide Bearings.
3. Turn the Outer Blade Guide Bearings
gradually until they are clear of the Blade.
Then retighten the Nuts.
4. Adjust the Inner Blade Guide Bearings (Fig. 18-2) by loosening the
Bolts (#70) holding the Blade Guide Brackets (#73, 79) in place. Move the
Blade Guide Brackets forward or back until the proper clearance is
obtained. Retighten the Bolts.
ADJUST THE BLADE TRACKING
DANGER! When the tool is in operation, keep hands away from the saw blade
and the area it is being applied to. Failure to follow this warning will result in
amputation, serious personal injury or death.
IMPORTANT! The Blade Guide Bearings should be completely clear of the Saw
Blade if adjustment is necessary (see Adjust the Blade Guide Bearings).
This procedure requires running the Band Saw with the Blade Back Cover open.
