9. With the blade in place, turn the tensioner handle clockwise until Bade Tension Display shows required value.
Recommended blade tension is 1250 - 1350 kg. If blade is under tensioned the blade motor will not start
10. Replace the blade cover and close wheels door.
11. Jog the blade a few rotations to check that the blade is not moving in or out on the blade wheels. As the blade
tracking will stay fairly constant, it should be checked occasionally by measuring the gap between the back of
the blade and wheel ange. The gap should measure .040-.080”. If the tracking requires adjustment, follow the
instructions below.
BLADE TRACKING ADUSTMENT
First, inspect the blade wheels for wear or damage and repair as required, Blade tracking adjustment should always begin
at the wheel where the tracking is farthest out of specication. Using the instructions below, adjust the worst wheel, jog the
blade and recheck both wheels. Repeat this process until both wheels are within specication.
Idler Wheel Adjustment
The Idler Wheel must be adjusted so that it is aligned with the drive wheel. The purpose of the adjustment is to ensure
that the back of the blade remains about .040-.080” away from the wheel ange during rotation.
1. Release blade tension.
2. Open wheel cover.
3. Loosen the screw and using a mallet tap the shaft in or out.
4. Restore the machine and run blade for few wheel rotations.
5. Check the distance between the blade and wheels ange.
6. If necessary repeat above steps until proper gap is achieved
