Blade Guide Adjustment
Blade guide adjustment has been set at the factory.
Should adjustment be necessary:
1. Loosenthe upper blade guide lockknob, raise
the guide assembly to half way betweentable
and head,then tighten lock knob.
2. Loosentwo set screws (A, Fig.9)and adjust
guide so that blade guides are in backof the saw
teeth. Bladeguides must be adjustedfar
enough backto clearsaw bladeevenduringthe
cutting operationwhen the blade isdeflected
toward the rear.
3. Tighten two set screws (A, Fig.9).
4. Open the upper access door and rotatethe
bladewheel by hand untilthe weld portionofthe
blade is between the twofingers.
5. Loosen two hexcap screws (B, Fig.9)and
adjust each finger towardthe blade. They
should not touch the blade. Adjustfor .010"
clearance oneither side.
6. Tighten two hexcap screws (B, Fig.9) once
proper adjustment has been made. Besure that
adjustmentfor air nozzle has not changedand it
directs the flow of airto the cut.
7. Adjust lower blade guide in the same manner.
See Fig. 10.
8. Even properly adjusted blade guides will show
wear after continual use. Re-adjustas
necessary.
Figure 9
Figure 10
Top Guide Adjustment
Always positionthe top guide to within an 1/8"of the
top surface of the workpiece. This minimizes
exposure of the operator'shands to the saw blade.
Changing Saw Blades
1. Disconnectsaw from the powersource.
2. Move the upper bladeguide to its highest
position and lock in place.
3. Open bothwheel doors. Turn the tension
adjustment knob counter-clockwiseto loosen
tension onthe blade.
4. Removethe blade from bothwheels and
maneuver it aroundthe blade guard on the
column and protectiveshield on the upper blade
guide.
5. Install new blade by maneuveringaround blade
guard on the column and protective shieldon the
upper bladeguide.
6. Place it between the fingers of bothbladeguides
and onto both wheels. Positionnextto both
wheel flanges. Make sure teeth pointdown
toward the table.
7. Retention the saw blade byturningtensionhand
wheel. Rotatethe wheel by handand makesure
the blade is properly seated in the bladeguides.
Blade guideswill have to be adjusted if the
replacement blade is a different type and width.
8. Turn on the saw and check bladetracking.
Adjust tracking if necessary.
Blade Selection
Proper blade selection is just as important to band
saw operation as is blade speed and material feed.
Proper blade selection will impact blade life,
straightness of cut, cut finish, and efficiency of
operation. Excess blade breakage, stripping of
teeth, and waviness of cut are some of the results of
improper blade selection.
Blades are classified by material composition, tooth
shape, pitch of teeth, and type of set, gage of the
band material, and kerf of the set (width of cut).
- ----
Material Composition
Carbon Steel - low cost, for use with non-ferrous
materials, wood, and plastics.
High Speed Steel - resistsheat generated by dry
cutting. Usedfor ferrous metalsand are more
expensive than carbon steel blades.
Alloy Steel - tough and wear resistant,cuts faster
with longer blade life. Usedon hard materials. More
expensive than carbon or highspeed steel.
Carbide Tipped - for cutting unusual materials such
as uranium, titanium, or beryllium. Very expensive.
Tooth Shape
Note: When cutting thin materials, the rule for blade
pitch is to have a minimum of two teeth engaging the
material being cut at all times.
Standard Tooth - generally usedto cut ferrous
metals, hard bronze, hard brass, andthin metals.
Skip Tooth - havebetter chip clearance (larger
gullet) and are used on softer, non-ferrous materials
such as aluminium, copper, magnesium,and soft
brass.
Hook Tooth - providesa chip breakerand has less
tendency to gum up insofter materials. Used in the
same materialsas skip tooth butcan befed faster
than standard or skip tooth blades.
Set Type
Straight Set - used for free cutting non-ferrous
materials; Le., aluminum, magnesium,plastics,and
wood.
Wavy Set - used on materials of varying thickness
(pipe, tubing, and structural shapes).
Raker Set - used in large cuts on thick plate and bar
stock where finish of cut is not as important as
speed.
Gage
Blade gage is the thickness of material the blade
from which the blade is produced. The thicker the
material, the stronger the blade will be.
Kerf
Kerf isthe width of a cut. Kerfwillvary accordingto
set of blade teeth.
Blade Width
The thinner the blade,the tighter the minimumradius
of cut will be. Always usethewidest bladepossible
for thejob.
General rulesfor bladeselection:
.
Select coarser pitch blades for thicker or softer
material.
.
Selectfiner pitch blades for thinner or harder
material.
.
Use fine pitch blades to obtain a smooth finish.
.
Use coarse pitch blades to obtain faster cutting
speeds (thick material).
.
To prevent prematurebladewear, use the
fastest practical speed.
.
Adjust the feed rate to ensure continuous
cutting action.
.
Run the bandsaw with the blade centered in the
upper and lower guides and the guide fingers
adjusted as close as possible without touching
the blade or weld joint.
Using the Blade Welder
Blade Shear and Blade Preparation
1.
The blade should be cut to the longest length
that machinewill accept.
2.
Put the handle in the upright position.
3.
Place the blade against the back of the square
cutting guide of the shear.
4.
Bring the handle down firmly to cut blade.
5.
Use the blade grinder to assure the bladeends
are flat, square, and smooth.
6.
With fine pitched blades, one or moreteeth from
each sidewill have to be removedby grinding so
that the cross section ofthe weld area is
uniform.
Welder Preparation
1.
Clean the welder jaws andthe lowerjaw
inserts.
Welding
1.
Turn pressure switch (A, Fig. 11) to the zero
position.
2.
Join blade ends together and locate union inthe
center betweentwo electrodes.
3.
Set pressure switch (A, Fig. 11) to blade width
according to the scale.
4.
Press weld button (B, Fig. 11). Do notrelease
until the weld has been completed.

Points to remember in preparing the blade for welding
Annealing
1. Releasethe welded bladeand clamp it again
betweenthe front edge of the two jaws.
2. Annealing procedurewill dependon bladetype:
Carbon Steel Blades
1. Press and jog the annealing switch button until
the weld is a "dull cherry" to "cherry red" color.
2. Allow the bladeto cool slowly by decreasingthe
jogging frequency.

2. Continue to heatbyjogging the anneal button
until the width of the bluecolor is one-halfthe
length of the bandexposed betweenthejaws.
3.
Do not overheat or the temper of the band will be
damaged. Caution - Do not heat beyond the
"blue" stage. If the band beginsto show any red
color, it is too hot. Cool quickly by releasingthe
anneal button.

Bi-Metal Blades
Correct annealing of Carbon Steel Hard
Back Blades
1. Heatthe blade slowly byjogging the annealing
switch button until the weldjust beginsto emit
light (dull red color). Thedesirecolor maynot
always be visible in normal room light- always
shade the weld areawith your hand.
2. Cool the weld quickly by releasingthe annealing
button.
3. Follow this procedure before and after grinding
bimetal blades.
Blade Grinding
After annealing,the blademust be groundto remove
excess metal or flash from the weld. With the teeth
facing out, grind theweld carefully. Do not hit the
teeth, grind deeper than the weld, burn,or overheat
the weld area. Besure to removeflash from the
back edge of the blade. Any flash or "stub" teeth
which project beyondthe normal set or heightof the
other teeth must be ground oft.
Secondary Annealing
Anneal the weld 2-3 times again after grinding.
Welder Clean-Up
It is important that the welder jaws bekeptclean at
all times. Thejaws and inserts mustbewiped or
scraped clean after every weld. Doingthiswill
ensure betterwelds by:
1. Holding proper alignment.
2. Preventing flashfrom becomingembeddedin
the blade.
3. Preventing shorts or poorelectricalcontact.
Lubrication Schedule
.
Upper Blade Guide Shaft -lightly grease
weekly. Clean after every day's use.
.
