MAKE SURE that your machine is

Blade Change

Change the blade when it becomes dull, damaged, or

when you are using materials that require a blade of a

certain type or tooth count.

To change the bandsaw blade, do these steps:

1. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER!

2. Hold the headstock, un-attach the feed cylinder by

removing the cap screw, then raise the headstock to

the full vertical position (see

Figure 31).

3. Push the safety stop in, use a screwdriver to remove

the upper and lower blade guide guards, and loosen

the blade guides (see

Figure 32).
