24" & 27" Resaw Bandsaws -15-
G3619/G3620
Tracking
The wheels on the Model G3619/G3620 Resaw
Bandsaws are crowned with rubber tires. This
style requires center tracking for proper opera-
tion.
To center track your blade:
1. Make sure the bandsaw is unplugged!
2. Open the upper wheel cover door. Slowly
rotate the upper wheel and watch where the
blade rides on the wheel. If the blade stays
centered on the crown of the wheel, then it is
properly tracked.
3. If the blade does not ride centered on the
crown of the wheel, then spin the upper
wheel by hand and adjust the tracking hand-
wheel until the blade is positioned correctly.
4. Spin the wheel approximately three more
times to ensure that the blade stays cen-
tered. Adjust and check if necessary.
5. Close the upper wheel cover door.
G9963/G9966
Tracking
The wheels on the Model G9963/G9966 Resaw
Bandsaws are considered “Flat Wheels.” This
means that tracking procedures vary from the
common crowned wheel bandsaws, because
they do not have to be centered for proper oper-
ation.
To track the blade:
1. Make sure the bandsaw is unplugged!
2. Open the wheel cover doors and check the
position of the blade on the wheels. The
teeth of the blade should be over the edge of
each wheel. Ideally, the bottom of the teeth
gullets should ride approximately
1
⁄16" off the
edge of the wheels as shown in Figure 10.
