which may be lodged in them. Lodged chips can prevent
rotation of the guide rollers and cause flat spots on the
guide rollers.
6. Rubber tires
are mounted on the pulleys

rubber tires should be inspected for looseness or damage
when changing the blade. Wipe any chips from the
rubber tires on the pulleys with a brush.
nOTE: Do not use your hands to wipe chips.
This will extend tire life and keep the blade from slipping.
If any looseness or damage occurs, the tool should be
brought to an authorized D
repair or replacement as soon as possible. Continued use
of the tool with loose or damaged rubber tires will cause
unstable travel of the band saw blade.
7. Close the blade guard and securely latch the two
blade guard latches. Rotate the blade tension lever
counterclockwise 180 degrees until it stops.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn tool off and remove the battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An
accidental start‑up can cause injury.
NOTICE: Excessive tightening of the adjustment screws
could result in damage to the saw.
Your band saw is equipped with an adjustable blade tracking
mechanism which assures proper blade tracking at all times.

3. Use a 3 mm hex wrench
1/4 turn clockwise or counterclockwise (Fig. G).
nOTE: Turning the tracking screw clockwise moves
the blade toward the guide roller, turning the tracking
screw counterclockwise moves the blade away from the
guide roller.
4. Tighten the locking nut and close the blade tension lever
and blade guard. (It will be necessary to run the saw to
observe the tracking.)
