Blade Changes

Always disconnect power to the machine when changing blades. Failure to do this may result in serious person- al injury.

To remove the blade:

1.After making sure the bandsaw is unplugged, release the tension on the blade by turning the tension control knob counter- clockwise.

2.Adjust the upper and lower guide blocks away from the blade.

3.Put on leather gloves to protect your hands from the sharp teeth of the blade.

4. Open the upper and lower wheel covers and slide the blade off both wheels. Use cau- tion—the blades are sharp!

Wear gloves and safety goggles when han- dling blades. Coiled blades spring open as they are uncoiled and could cause deep cuts or lacerations.

To replace the blade:

1.Slide the blade through the table slot, ensur- ing that the teeth are pointing down toward the table.

If the teeth will not point downward in any ori- entation, the blade is inside-out. Put on heavy gloves, remove the blade, and twist it rightside-out.

2.Slip the blade through the upper and lower guides, and mount it over the upper and lower wheels so the blade teeth are over the edge of the wheels.

3.Apply tension, then check and adjust track- ing.

4.Adjust the upper and lower guide blocks and support bearings.

5.Close and latch the wheel covers.
