1.DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER!

2.Lock the saw frame in the rearmost position, then remove the right side cover.

3.Loosen the screws that hold the blade scrap- er in place (Figure 59).

4.Reposition the blade scraper as close as possible to the blade without touching it, then re-tighten the screws.

5.Loosen the screws that hold the wheel brush in place (Figure 60).
