NOTE: The Bandsaw is equipped with a 93” diameter, .032” thick, 3/4” wide, 8

tooth per inch Saw Blade (127). The machine will also accept Blades in 4, 6,

8, and 10 tooth sizes. The choice of Blade pitch is determined by the thickness

of the material to be cut. The thinner the workpiece, the more teeth is recom-

mended. A minimum of 3 teeth should engage the workpiece at all times for

proper cutting. If the teeth of the Saw Blade are so far apart that they straddle

the workpiece, severe damage to the workpiece and/or Saw Blade will result.

(See Figure W.)

Tighten the tension on the new Saw Blade (127) by turning the Blade Tension

Knob (181). (See Figure W.)

Close the Wheel Cover (129). (See Figure W.)

To replace the V-Belt: The Bandsaw uses a size 3V270 V-Belt (183). To replace

the V-Belt:

Open the Pulley Cover (189). (See Figure X.)

Loosen the Hex Head Screw to release tension on the old V-Belt.

(See Figure X.)

(See Figure X.)

Place the new V-Belt (183) into the proper Pulley (184, 185) combination for the

desired Blade speed. (See Figure K.)

Adjust the position of the Motor (192) to obtain approximately 1/2” depression in

the V-Belt (183) when applying pressure with your thumb. (See Figure X.)

Tighten the Hex Head Screw to secure the Motor (192) in place.
