Replacing the Saw Blade:

The saw blade is not easy to sharpen, and we recommend fitting a replacement when the

blade becomes blunt, loses its set, or becomes bent or cracked. Replacement blades are

available from your local dealer or Clarke International Spare Parts Department.

1. Remove the table by first removing the table set screw then fully unscrewing the securing

knobs.

2. Back off all blade guides and blade supports as detailed under 'Blade Guide

Adjustments' on page 10.

3. Remove the front cover to gain access to the blade.

4. Turn the blade tension locking knob (25) one complete turn anticlockwise.

5. Turn the blade tension Hex. socket head adjuster screw (24) fully anticlockwise to relieve

all tension from the blade.

5. Carefully pull the blade from the wheels taking great care not to damage your hands

on the teeth. It is recommended that a pair of industrial gloves be worn for this task.

6. Position the new blade over the wheels, feeding it through the blade guides, ensuring

that the teeth point downwards toward the table. Position it as close to the centre of

each wheel as possible.

7. Turn the blade tension locking knob clockwise and correctly tension the blade.

8. Carry out tracking checks and adjust if necessary.

9. Readjust all blade guides and blade supports as detailed under 'Blade Guide

Adjustment' on page 10.

10. Replace the table and the front cover.

11. Plug the machine into the mains supply and with a slow speed selection, push the ON

(I) button. Gradually build up the speed and allow to run for 10 - 15 minutes at a moderate

speed in order to settle the blade. (Essential when running the blade for the first time).

Before use, check blade tension and adjust if required.

NOTE: It is strongly advised that for the first few cuts, the cutting pressure exerted on the

workpiece should be minimised in order to allow time for the blade to 'run in'.

Fault Finding

The bandsaw is fitted with a microswitch to prevent the saw from operating if the cover is

opened whilst the saw is running. If the saw does not start, check the microswitch to ensure

it operates correctly when the cover is closed. An audible click should be heard, when the

cover is fitted, denoting the switch has closed. It may be necessary to adjust the mounting

in order to achieve this.

Most operational problems with the saw can be corrected by adjusting blade tension, the

blade guides or tracking. Poor adjustment will lead to the blade wandering, or not cutting

in a straight line, or slipping from the wheels. It can even result in the blade breaking. Make

sure the machine is always correctly set up and adjusted, and that the blade teeth are

pointing downward toward the table. Similarly, if the blade is blunt or has lost its set, or is

bent or cracked, it will not cut easily or in a straight line. A damaged or blunt blade must be

replaced.
