Upper blade guide adjustment
The height of the upper blade guide needs to be adjusted:
prior to every cutting/operation, to accommodate the height of the work piece (the
upper blade guide should be set approx. 3 mm above the work piece);
- after adjustments of band saw blade or saw table (e.g. band saw blade change,
tensioning of the band saw blade, saw table alignment).
CAUTION:
Before adjusting the upper blade guide and saw table tilt:
- switch machine OFF;
- wait until the band saw blade has come to a complete stop.
• Set upper blade guide with the adjusting knob to the desired height by loosening
the lock knob.
After adjustment be sure to tighten the lock nut.
• Never cut several work pieces at the same time — and also no bundles containing
several individual pieces. Risk of personal injury if individual pieces are caught by
the saw blade uncontrolled.
