Resawing

DO NOT cut slices thinner than 1⁄4" off of the bottom of the stock. Attempting to cut thin slices off of the bottom may cause the blade to cut into the conveyor belt.

To perform a resawing operation:

1.Make sure the blade is installed and ten- sioned correctly as described in Installing the Blade on page 22.

2.Set the blade to the desired height.

—To cut off of the top of the stock; place the stock on the conveyor and align the top of the blade level with the top of the stock. Remove the stock from the conveyor and lower the blade the desired amount.

—To cut off of the bottom of the stock; rotate the handwheel until the blade elevation gauge reads the desired height. Note—Six rotations of the handwheel raises the blade approximately 1/4".

3.Turn the POWER ON switch clockwise to supply power and press the MOTOR START button to start the bandsaw blade.

4.Push the PUMP START button and move the conveyor ON/OFF lever forward to start the conveyor belt (see Figure 33).

5.Adjust the conveyor speed with the variable speed adjustor shown in Figure 33. If the blade continually rotates the support bear- ing, reduce the speed of the conveyor.

NOTICE

Running the conveyor too fast can push the blade into the support bearing, grooving the bearing and causing blade breakage.

6.Make sure the workpiece is clean and free of nails, staples, or embedded stones, and has two sides that are relatively flat and parallel with each other.

7.Begin feeding the workpiece under the front pressure rollers with a flat edge against the guide rollers, as shown in Figure 34.

through the bandsaw.

8.Receive the workpiece on the outfeed side of the machine. Note—If a second person is receiving the workpieces, use the return roll- ers to send them back to the person on the infeed side.

NOTICE

Always de-tension blade after use. Bandsaw blades will last longer and stretch less if de- tensioned after each use.
