Maintenance And Adjustments

1. BLADE GUIDE BEARING ADJUSTMENT

This Is the most Important adjustment on your saw. It is impossible to get satisfactory

work from your saw If the blade guides are not properly adjusted. The blade

guide bearings for your Metal culling Bandsaw are adjusted and power tested

with several test cuts before leaving the factory to ensure proper setting.

The need for adjustment should rarely occur when the saw is used properly. If

the guides do get out of adjustment, It is extremely Important to readjust

immediately. If proper adjustment is not maintained, the blade will not cut straight

and if the situation Is not corrected, it win cause blade damage.

Because guide adjustment is a critical factor In the performance of your saw, it

Is always best to try new blade to see if this will correct poor cutting before

beginning to adjust the bearings.

If a blade becomes dull on one side rather than the other for example, it will

begin cuttinhg crooked. A simple blade change should correct this problem -

the more difficult guide adjustment will not.

It a new blade does not correct the problem, check the blade guides for proper spacing.

There should be 0.001" clearance between the 0.025" thickness blade and guide

bearings.

To obtain this clearance adjust as follows:

The inner guide bearing is fixed and cannot be adjusted.

The outer guide bearing is mounted to an eccentric bolt and con be adjusted.

Loosen the nut whilst holding the bolt head with a spanner.

Position the eccentric by turning the bolt to the desired position of clearance.

Tighten the nut.

Adjust the second blade guide bearing in the same manner.

The back edge of the blade should just touch the lip of the Blade Guide bearing.
