G0613/14 Swivel Mast Metal Cutting Bandsaw -39-
Feed Stop
It may be necessary to adjust the feed stop
before you make blade adjustments. The blade
should never rest on or rub on any part of the vise
assembly. Also, the over-tilt stop may be adjusted
to stop the bow from being lifted past 40°, causing
machine instabilit y and hydraulic cylinder dam-
age.
To adjust the feed stop bolt:
Adjust the feed stop bolt and jam nut (Figure 51),
so the bandsaw blade teeth are just below the
vise table surface when the cut is complete.

Feed Auto Stop
It may be necessary to adjust the auto stop after
you have removed the limit switch for adjustment
or maintenance.
To set the auto stop:
Adjust the auto stop bolt and jam nut (Figure
52), so the bandsaw blade teeth are just below
the vise table sur face when the saw blade has
completed its cut.
