Operating Instructions
Operating Controls
START/STOP Switch
Figure 6 provides suggested blade speeds for
various
types of materials. The recommended speeds
should be decreased 30 to 50% when using
carbon steel blades. (The chart provides speeds
that are based on cutting a 4-inch thick work piece
using a bi-metal blade without cutting fluid.)

Variable Speed Control
The variable speed control (refer to Figure 9) is
used to change the speed of the saw blade. Refer
to Adjusting Blade Speed for additional information on the use of the variable speed control.
Operating Instructions
Saw blades
The Wilton 14-inch saws accept blades from 1/8inch wide to 3/4-inch wide. The narrower widths
are used for cutting shapes or circles; the wider
widths are used for straight cuts.
For straight cuts, use the widest available saw
blade. A wide blade provides cutting stability, and
allows for more accurate and straighter cuts.
Blade speed effects the efficiency of the cut and
the service life of the blade. Good shop practice
requires that work-hardening materials, such as
stainless steel, require the cut be completed in a
single pass. Otherwise, the effect of stopping the
cut can result in hardening of the cut interface.
Other materials such as wood require higher blade
speeds to prevent fiber tearing. The chart in
The following conditions should also be considered:
1. Increase speed 15% for materials 1/4-inch
thick, 12% for 3/4-inch thick, 10% for 1 1/4inch thick, and 5% for 2 1/2-inch thick.
2. Decrease speed 12% when cutting 8-inch thick
material.
To avoid tooth breakage, select a blade-tooth pitch
that will have two or more teeth in contact with the
workpiece at all times.
Different blade materials and tooth geometry (pitch
and set) permit sawing a wide range of common
and exotic materials. Contact your industrial
distributor for recommendations on specialized
blades. Using the corrrect blade can save you
time, trouble, and the possibility of dulling and
pemature discarding of the blade you normally
might use. NOTE: Always use a sharp blade.

Adjustments
Adjusting Blade Support/Guide Height
The upper blade support and guide mechanism
can be adjusted to accomodate the height of the
work piece.
1. To adjust the support, loosen the knob that
clamps the support rod, then move the support
up or down in its holder. (Refer to Figure
location of the support mechanism.
2. Adjust the support so there is space between
the support and work piece. Space of approximately 1/8-inch is generally appropriate.
Adjusting Blade Tension
Blade tension is set by a spring loaded tension
mechanism on the upper drive wheel. Check the
level of the tension device before cutting. The
tension for various blade widths as indicated on the
casting on the tension device.
Figure 8. Table Tilt Mechanism and Angle Gauge
Adjusting Table Angle
(Refer to Figure 8.) The angle gauge is under the
front of the table. The angle gauge shows the
angle of the table relative to the saw blade. The
table is mounted on trunnions that allow
adjustment downward 45 degrees, and upward 10
degrees. Loosen the two trunnion lock knobs
slightly to adjust the table angle and retighten the
lock knobs.
Figure 7. Saw Blade Tension and Tracking Mechanism
NOTE: by adjusting the positive leveling stop on
the table leveling mechanism, it is possible to tilt
the table upward 10 degrees. When returning
to 0 degrees, the table leveling mechanism
must be reset after completing the sawing
operation (refer to Machine Set-up).
WARNING: When cutting at an angle with a
tilted table, provide a guide against which
the material being cut can rest. Cutting
“freehand” at an angle, can result in injury
and maintaining an accurate cut is it difficult.
Leveling Work Table
The table can be adjusted to level the table relative
to the saw bleade. Use the following method:
WARNING: The saw must be turned off and
power disconnected any time the gearbox
lubricant is being drained or filled.
1. Unplug the electrical cord or open the circuit
11
12
breaker in the branch circuit.
2. Move the upper blade guide assembly to the
very top of its travel.
3. Make sure the blade is straight, and fully
tensioned. (A damaged or worn blade may
provide a poor reference surface for squaring
the table.)
4. Loosen the table lock knobs and hold the
table firmly against its positive leveling stop.
6. Using a machinist’s square, check to make
sure the table is 90 degrees to the blade.
USING LEATHER PROTECTIVE GLOVES,
turn the upper drive wheel to check the
squareness at a minimum of three points on
the blade
7. If the table is not level, unlock the lock nut on
the table leveling bolt.
8. Turn the leveling bolt as required to make the
table square to the blade.
9. Lock the leveling bolt lock nut and recheck the
table level. When the table is level...
10. Lock the table lock knobs securely and
recheck for level. Adjust as necessary until
the table is level while everything is tightened
to working tightness.
11. With everything locked down, look at the
pointer for the angle gauge. It should be
exactly on the zero mark of the gauge (Figure
12). If not, loosen the pointer screw, adjust the
pointer until it is on zero, then tighten the
pointer screw while holding the pointer securely in position on zero.
Adjusting Miter Gauge Slot Parallelism
The miter slot should be parallel to the side of the
blade. If the saw is not cutting straight when using
the miter gauge, the miter slot may not be parallel.
1. Put a straight edge against the blade. Make
sure to position the blade so tooth offset does
not affect the straight edge.
2. Measure from both ends of the miter slot to the
straight edge.3. If the measurements are
not equal at both ends of the slot, loosen six
bolts securing the table to the table trunnions
(see Figures 12 and 13.)
4. Adjust the table until it is parallel with the blade.
5. Tighten the trunnion attaching bolts.
Adjusting Blade Speed
(Models 8201/8203)
Figure 6 on page 9 provides blade speeds for
various materials. To adjust the blade speed,
change the clutch position of the clutch (in or out)
and the position of the drive belt on the pulleys on
the motor and reduction gearbox shafts.
Adjusting Blade Speed
(Models 8201VS/8203VS)
See Figure 9 at bottom of this page.
1. The blade speed is controlled by an adjustment mechanism on the right end of the
saw. Speed increases or decreases as the

wear and possibly result in belt failure.
Changing Pulley-to-Belt Position
WARNING: NEVER attempt to change pulley
shaft positions while the saw is running.
The saw must be turned off and power
disconnected any time pulley shaft poistions
are being changed.
1. Unplug the electrical cord or open the circuit
breaker in the branch circuit.
2. Open the door on the machine base and the
door on the pulley case.
3. Push up on the motor to pivot the motor
upward and slacken the drive belt.
4. With the motor drive belt loose, remove both
pulley drive belts.
5. Both of the pulleys are secured to their shafts
with two set screws. These are located in the
bottoms of the V-grooves on the pulleys.
Using a hex wrench, loosen (but do not
remove) all four set screws.
6. Pull the pulleys straight off each shaft.
7. Put the lower pulley on the upper shaft and the
upper pulley on the lower shaft.
8. Push the upper pulley firmly against the
reduction gearbox and tighten the two set
screws which secure it to the shaft.
9. Using a straight edge against the pulley
flanges, make certain the bottom pulley is
aligned with the upper pulley. Then tighten the
two set screws that secure the lower pulley to
the shaft.

10. Install the belts as required (refer to Figure 10).
11. Release the weight of motor so the motor
pivots downward. The weight of the motor will
provide adequate belt tension.
12. The weight of the motor should provide
sufficient tension so the the middle of the small
drive belt is displaced approximately the
thickness of the belt. (The high speed belt is
adjusted at the same time as the smaller belt.)
13. Set the drive clutch to the desired position (IN
or OUT).
14. Close the access doors.
15. Plug the electrical cord into the power source
or close the circuit breaker on the branch
circuit.
Using Miter System
A miter gauge is provided with the band saw. The
miter gauge slips into a slot in the face of the work
table. The miter gauge can be adjusted from 0 to
45 degrees.
Adjust the miter gauge as follows:
1. Loosen the clamping screw on the miter
gauge.
2. Adjust to desired angle.
3. Tighten the clamping screw.
Using Rip Fence
1. Unlock the fence by loosening the lock knob
(ref. 7) and handle (ref. 10.)
2. Slide the fence on its guides until it is the
required distance from the blade.
3. Tighten the lock knob and handle, slightly.
4. Using a machinist’s square, measure the
distance between the edge of the miter slot
and both the front and rear of the rip fence.
Adjust so both distances are equal.
5. Check the fence-to-blade gap, again. Readjust the fence, if necessary, until the blade gap
is correct and the fence is parallel with the
miter slot.
6. Tighten the fence firmly using the lock knob
and handle.
Using the Dust Control Chute
Maintenance
This section contains periodic maintenance
recommendations and maintenance procedures.
Changing Saw Blade
WARNING: The saw must be turned off and
power disconnected any time saw blades
are being changed.
1. Unplug the electrical cord or open the circuit
breaker in the branch circuit.
2. Pull open both upper and lower drive wheel
guards (refer to Figure 1).
3. Release blade tension completely by turning
the tension handle fully counterclockwise.
4. Remove table leveling pin. The pin has a tight
push fit in its slot; it is not threaded. (Refer to
Figure 13.
5. Use a screwdriver to pop out the table insert.
6. Loosen the set screws that lock the guide
blocks. Move the guide blocks outward. Then
turn the micro-adjusting knob to move the
blade support bearing to the very rear of its
travel.
7. Using a hex wrench, loosen the set screw that
locks the lower blade guide and support
assembly. Move the assembly to the very rear
of its travel by using the micro-adjusting knob
on the back side of the assembly (refer to
Figure 11).

On the lower side of the table, below the cutting
position of the blade, is a plastic tube which can be
attached to a shop vacuum, or to a shop dust
control system. The dust control chute can be seen
in several of the figures used to illustrate the
operation of the saw.
Figure 11. Upper Blade Guides
8. Using a hex wrench, loosen the carbide blade
guide set screws. Open up a reasonably large
gap between the guides; do this on both the
upper and lower blade guides.
9. USING LEATHER GLOVES AND ANSI Z87.1
EYEWEAR TO PROTECT YOURSELF FROM
THE CUTTING BLADE, carefully remove the
blade from the drive wheels. Remove the
blade out of the saw table through the table.
10. Hang the removed blade in a safe place.
NOTE: Clean out the interior of the saw with a
shop vacuum. Examine the bearings and other
exposed mechanisms of the saw.
11. Using protective gloves, carefully ease the
replacement blade into the table slot and over
the upper and lower drive wheels.
NOTE: It is possible to install the blade upside
down. Make sure the teeth on the blade are
pointing downward.
NOTE: The blade should be “free standing” at the
cutting throat; the upper and lower blade guides
should not touch the blade at any point. Also,
make sure the blade is in the slot in the blade
guard on the left side of the machine frame.
Refer to Figure 1 to identify the blade guard.

12. Apply tension to the blade using the tension
knob. The tension levels for various blade
widths are shown on the markings on the
tension device. Refer to Figure 3 for a view of
the tension system.
13. Slowly turn the upper drive wheel by hand,
while OBSERVING THE BLADE TRACKING.
The blade should track, more or less, in the
center of the drive wheel. If the blade does not
track true, adjust the tracking to keep the blade
centered.
14. Unlock the tilt adjustment knob by loosening
its locking wing nut. Both the adjustment knob
and wing nut are identified in Figure 7.
15. Turn the tilt adjustment knob (usually a VERY
LITTLE at a time) to adjust the tilt of the upper
drive wheel. Do this while turning the upper
wheel by hand, and adjusting until the blade
stays centered on the wheel.
16. Tighten the tilt mechanism locking wing nut.
17. Using the micro-adjusting knob, move the
lower blade support assembly (Refer to Figure
12) forward until the support bearing just
contacts the back edge of the saw blade.
18. Adjust the lower carbide blade guides until they
just contact the sides of the blade. Make sure
the guides DO NOT CONTACT THE TOOTH
PORTION OF THE BLADE. The guides
should touch only the flat part of the blade.
After correctly positioning the carbide guide
blocks, tighten the set screws securely.

Replacing drive wheel rubber
protectors
The rubber rings that cover the drive wheels are
called protectors. The protectors protect the wheel
from blade damage and provide a high friction
drive force on the tensioned blade. Over a long
period of service, the protectors wear and may
require replacement.
WARNING: The saw must be turned off and
power disconnected any time the gearbox
lubricant is being drained or filled.
1. Unplug the electrical cord or open the circuit
breaker in the branch circuit.
2. Open the door in the base.
3. Push up on the motor to loosen the drive belts.
4. Remove the pipe plug at the bottom of the
gearbox. Drain the oil into a suitable container
for safe and appropriate disposal.
5. Replace the drain plug.
6. Open the filler plug.
7. Add lubricant until the level is halfway up the
sight gauge window (refer to Figure 15). Use
Shell Spirax HD 90 gear lubricant.
8. Replace the filler plug.
9. Replace the drive belts. Allow the motor to
pivot downward to apply tension to the belts.
10. Close the access door.
11. Plug the electrical cord into the power source
or close the circuit breaker on the branch
circuit.

WARNING: The saw must be turned off and
power disconnected any time the rubber
protectors are being changed.
1. Unplug the electrical cord or open the circuit
breaker in the branch circuit.
2. Remove the blade according to the step-bystep instructions on blade replacement.
3. Remove the rubber protectors from the drive
wheels. Use a flat screwdriver blade or knife
blade to loosen the protectors, being careful
not to nick or score the aluminum drive
wheels.
4. Clean the surface of the drive wheels. Use a
solvent such as mineral spirits as required to
achieve a clean, dry surface for the new
protectors.
5. Carefully slip the replacement protectors onto
the drive wheels.
