Adjusting The Blade Guide Bearings:
1. NOTE: Blade Guide Bearings (88, 92, 100, 104) adjustment is a critical factor in
the performance of the Bandsaw.
2. It is always best to try a new Saw Blade (82) to see if it will correct poor cutting
before attempting to adjust the Blade Guide Bearings. For example, if a Saw
Blade becomes dull on one side sooner than the other, it will begin cutting
crooked. A Saw Blade replacement will correct this problem, whereas Blade
Guide Bearings adjustment will not.
3. If a new Saw Blade does not correct the problem, check the Blade Adjustable
Seats (83, 110) to obtain the proper clearance. (See Figure S.)
4. NOTE: There should be from .000” (just touching) to .001” clearance between
the Saw Blade and Blade Guide Bearings (88, 92, 100, 104). To obtain this
clearance adjust as follows:
A. The
Outer
Blade Guide Bearings (92, 104) are mounted to Shafts (91, 103)
and can be adjusted. (See Figure S.)
B. Loosen the Nuts (86, 96) while holding the Shafts (91, 103) with an Allen
wrench (not included). (See Figure S.)
C. Position the Shafts (91, 103) by turning it to the desired position of clear-
ance. Then, re-tighten the Nuts (86, 96). (See Figure S.)
D. Adjust the
Inner
Blade Guide Bearings (88, 100) in the same manner.
