G0560 Meat-Cutting Bandsaw -25-
The support bearing backs the blade during oper-
ation. As mentioned in the “Blade Guard” instruc-
tions, the blade guide assembly (with the support
bearing) should be lowered to within an inch from
the material you are cutting to be most efficient.
The support bearing shown in Figure 38 should
be approximately 0.016" away from the back of
the blade. This is about four thicknesses of a dol-
lar bill. To adjust the support bearing, loosen the
support bearing shaft thumbscrew and slide the
support bearing forward or backward as neces-
sary.
10. Blade installation is the opposite of removal.
Once the blade is installed, remember to ten-
sion it appropriately, set the blade guides,
and replace the V-belt.
Make sure all components that were
removed have been placed back in their
original position, are adjusted correctly,
and all guards are in place before you plug
the bandsaw back into the power outlet. An
injury may occur if this caution is ignored.
Once assembly is complete and adjustments are
done to your satisfaction, you are ready to start
the machine.
Press the START button. Make sure that your fin-
ger is poised on the STOP button just in case
there is a problem. The bandsaw should run
smoothly with little or no vibration or rubbing nois-
es. Strange or unnatural noises should be inves-
tigated and corrected before operating the
machine further.
Run the Model G0560 for a short time to ensure
that the moving parts are working properly with
no excessive vibration. If any problem develops,
correct it before attempting to use the machine.
If you cannot locate the source of unusual noises,
immediately contact our service department at
(570) 546-9663.
