figure 34. the blade guide bearings should be
positioned just behind the blade gullets.
Note: With wider blades, it may not be pos-
sible to bring the guide bearings just behind
the blade gullets. In that case, position them
as far forward as possible without allowing
the guide bearing housing to touch the back
of the blade.
6. loosen both cap screws behind the guide
bearings, then rotate the adjustment cap
screws so the bearings evenly and lightly
touch the sides of the blade (see the illustra-
tion in the following figure).
Note: When the blade guide bearings are
properly adjusted against the blade, they
should still be able to rotate.
To reduce the risk of damage to the blade or
guide bearings, make sure that the bearings
do not contact the blade teeth when the
blade is deflected backward.
figure 35. Blade guide bearings evenly and
lightly touching the sides of the blade.
Whenever changing a blade or adjusting the
blade tension or tracking, the support and
guide bearings must be re-adjusted before
resuming operation.
7. While keeping the adjustment cap screws
from turning with one hex wrench, re-tighten
the locking cap screws to secure the set-
tings.
5. When you are satisfied with the lateral adjust-
ment of the guide bearings, re-tighten the
thumbscrew to secure the setting.
