OPERATION
Blade Guide
The upper blade guide should adjusted to
approximately
1
⁄4" away from the workpiece.
The support provided by having the blade guide
close to the workpiece ensures straight cuts and
reduces blade tendency to twist or drift.
To adjust the blade guide:
1. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER!
2. Loosen the cap screw in Figure 31 and slide
the blade guide to approximately
1
⁄4" away
from the workpiece, then re-tighten the cap
screw.

handle that allows the operator to quickly
adjust the opening of the jaws without the use
of the handwheel. Rotate the handle clockwise
to disengage the vise leadscrew, then slide the
vise open or closed as needed. To re-engage the
leadscrew, release the vise quick release handle.
