INNER BLADE GUIDE
6. Repeat the above steps for the inner blade guide
roller assembly.
NOTE: Once the blade guides have been adjusted,
any cutting variances are most likely caused by the blade.
Blade guides
Check the ceramic blade guides for the proper setting.
The two round ceramic guides should hover over and under the blade
between 0.0075-0.010 inches (0.2 - 0.25mm) -- use the provided 0.0075"
shim (p/n 035248) as a gauge.
The adjustment bolts for the top and bottom guides face the foot of the
sawmill. (See FIG. 4-9 and FIG. 4-10.)
NOTE: Before setting or adjusting the ceramic
blade guides the blade must be at the correct
tension and tracked on the band wheels.
A square ceramic guide lies in the middle of the blade guide assembly. This guide should be positioned approximately 1/8 inch
from blade back. Use the set screw on the side of the blade guide assembly to hold the position of the square guide. (See FIG.
4-10 .)
