TO ADJUST THE BLADE TENSION
Turn the Blade Tensioner Knob (245) clockwise to increase tension on the Saw
Blade (251). Turn the Knob counterclockwise to decrease tension on the Saw
Blade. Correct tension is aquired when the Saw Blade does not slip on the Drive
and Idler wheels (231S and 250-1). (See Figure O.)
NOTE: When the Bandsaw is not in use over long periods of time, release the
tension on the Saw Blade (251).
TO ADJUST THE FEED RATE
Note: Feed rate is adjusted by the Bleed Valve above on/off valve of the cylinder.
Turning the wheel clockwise slows down the arm’s movement.
