Transportation
The blade supplied with the band saw is designed for all-purpose use. When you
select a blade you should have regarded to the following criteria:
> Use a narrow blade to cut tighter radii than you can with a wider blade.
> Wide blades are used to saw straight cuts. This is particularly important in cutting
wood because the blade has a tendency to follow the grain of the wood and
thereby deviate easily from the cutting line.
> Finely toothed blades provide smoother cuts but are slower than coarse blades.
Blade selection
IMPORTANT: Never use warped or lacerated blades!
> Move the blade guide into a position approximately half way between the table
and the machine frame.
> Undo the fixing knobs (2) and open the left side cover (3). (see fig. 30)
> Undo the two hex screws (46) and remove the blade guard (6) (see Fig. 31).
> Unscrew and remove the wing nut (29) and bolt (28) (see Fig. 1).
> Turn the blade tension knob (4) anti-clockwise to remove the tension from the
blade (23). (see Fig. 11)
> Remove the blade (23) from the upper blade pulley (5) and lower blade pulley (8),
Then take out through the slot in the table (20). (Fig. 33)
