Blade Brush Angle Stops
The Model SB1020 has a blade brush to help
keep metal chips off the blade wheels. It will
wear over time and require re-adjustment when
it no longer contacts the blade.
Tools Needed Qty
Hex Wrench 4mm .................................................1
To adjust the blade brush:
1. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER!
2. Loosen the button head cap screws shown in
Figure 41.
The swivel base is equipped with three angle
stops to provide quick adjustments to 60° to the
left, 0°, and 45 to the right°. If cuts made using
these stops are not sufficiently accurate, the
stops will need to be adjusted.
