  • Page 39 Adjusting Support Bearings NOTICE Whenever changing a blade or adjusting ten- sion and tracking, the upper and lower blade support bearings and blade guide bearings must be properly adjusted before perform- ing cutting operations. To adjust the upper support bearings: Figure 40 Figure 40.
  • Page 40: Adjusting Blade Guide Bearings

    Note: For a quick gauge, fold a dollar bill in half twice (four thicknesses of a dollar bill is approxi- mately 0.016") and place it between the support bearing and the blade as shown in Figure 43 Figure 43. To adjust the lower support bearings: Figure 44 Figure 44.
  • Page 41 Figure 45 Figure 45. Note: The " spacing is ideal, although with larger blades it may not be possible. In such cases, adjust the guide bearings as far for- ward as possible to the blade gullets, and still maintain the proper support bearing spacing adjustment.

    Fine Tune Tracking NOTICE Adjusting the final blade tracking setting requires the machine to be turned ON. To fine tune the tracking: Figure 61 Figure 61. To make a rip cut: row pieces, use a push stick to protect your fingers.
  • Page 51 Crosscutting To make a 90˚ crosscut: Figure 63 Figure 63. Resawing Figure 64 Figure 64. When resawing thin pieces, a wandering blade (blad lead) can tear through the sur- face of the workpiece, exposing your hands to the blade teeth. Always use push blocks when resawing and keep your hands clear of the blade.
