B. ROLLER
Adjustment Notes
NOTE:
After the blade is installed, adjusting the
rollers is necessary for good performance.
Proper
roller clearance is achieved by adjusting the contact
pressure of the rollers against the blade.
(
CAUTION: Too little roller clearance (too tight) is
very detrimental to blade life.
a
WARNING: Too much roller clearance (too
loose) will cause wear on the sides of the
diamond segments due to blade vibration. It can
also be unsafe by allowing the blade to jump off.
NOTE: If the blade spins slowly or stops, adjusting
roller clearance will not help, unless roller clearance is
extremely tight. Check the condition of the drive disc,
engagement rollers and engagement roller springs,
first.
CAUTION: Remove and grease engagement rollers
every three days to prevent them from seizing.
