7 Bandsaw blade
7.1 Bandsaw blades
Attention:
Use only sharp and properly set saw
blades.
Only machine-sharpened and correctly set
saw blades give proper cutting results.
Never use damaged saw blades.
The choice of correct bandsaw blade
width depends on the cutting operation
to be undertaken.
For cutting tight curves
with radii from 5 mm, work
only with the fine-cutting
equipment . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3 mm wide
For cutting curves with
radii from 20 mm . . . . . . . . . . . . 6 mm wide
For longitudinal and cross
cuts, cutting curves with
radii from 40 mm . . . . . . . . . . . 10 mm wide
For straight cutting, and
thick workpieces . . . . . . . . . . . 15 mm wide
7.2 Changing the
bandshaw blade (Fig. 1)
Caution:
Switch off the machine and
disconnect from the mains
supply. Remove the plug!
Unscrew the two knob screws (9) and open
the machine cover.
Slacken off the wing nut (2) on the bandsaw
table and push the screw to the right.
Open the cover (11) of the blade guard.
Turn the screw (7) securing the blade to the
left to slacken off the saw blade.
Remove the bandsaw blade and fit the new
blade around the three pulleys.
Thread the blade between the upper and
lower guide pins (13). Secure the blade with
the screw (7). Close the cover (11) and the
machine cover.
If the cover refuses to close, push the blade
guard down.
Push the screw (2) to the left and tighten
the wing nut to ensure that the grooved
bandsaw table cannot be distorted.
Always wear protective
gloves!
7.2.1 Folding the
bandsaw blade
Hold the bandsaw blade in one hand. Let it
hang down vertically and hold it to the floor
with a foot. Turn your hand through 360°(a
complete circle), as you move it down
towards the floor.
7.2.2 Unfolding the
bandsaw blade
Hold the bandsaw blade away from your
body. Then hold one loop of the blade and
the two other loops will be released. The
bandsaw blade unfolds itself.
