Blade Guide Flange Spacing
Each blade guide must be adjusted so the roller flange is the correct distance from the back edge of
the blade. If the flange is too close to or too far from the blade, the sawmill will not cut accurately.
HINT: When adjusting blade guide spacing, loosen the top set screw
and one side set screw only. This will ensure horizontal and vertical tilt
adjustments are maintained when the adjustment screws are
retightened.
1. Measure the distance between the flange on the inner blade guide roller to the back edge of the
blade. This distance should measure 3 mm. Adjust the roller back or forward if necessary.
See Figure 7-12. Loosen the top and one side screw shown and rear adjusting bolt if necessary. Tap
the blade guide forward or backward until properly positioned. Retighten the screws and jam nuts.
2. Measure the distance between the flange on the outer blade guide roller to the back edge of the
blade. This distance should measure 3.0 mm. Adjust the roller back or forward if necessary.
