WARNING

Disconnect band saw from power source when changing or adjusting blades. Wear leather gloves when handling band saw blades. Never wear gloves when operating saw.

1.Turn blade tensioning lever (1) on the back of the tool clockwise all the way until it locks in position to release blade tension (see Figure E).

2.Release two latches (2) on the side of the tool and open front door.

NOTE: When opening door, make sure latches are completely free from tabs on frame and that angle scale pointer is turned down away from door. Be careful to ensure door does not contact table insert wing screw.

3.Remove table locking insert (Fig. F, 5) located in the front of the table slot, take out the released blade and replace with another blade.

INSTALLING BLADE (Fig. F)

1.Although most of the adjustments are not changed when blade is removed, every adjustment should be checked prior to using a newly installed blade.

2.Make sure blade teeth are pointing down towards table. Turn blade inside out if necessary.

3.Slip new blade into table slot (1) and over the upper, lower and idler blade wheels. Slide blade in between blade guards.

4.Tension blade (see Figure E) by turning blade tensioning lever (1) counterclockwise, as far as it will go. This is a spring loaded, tensioning mechanism and it will automatically apply required tension to the blade.

5.Close the front door and fasten latches.

NOTE: When closing door, make sure that the edges of the door and frame are firmly fitted together before attempting to secure door. This is necessary for proper operation of dust collection system. The latches will not pull the door and frame together.

6.Install table insert (5).

7.Track blade as described in the following sections.
