1. Place the stand of the woodworking band saw on the base of the band saw.
2. The saw wheel is the main component of the woodworking band saw machine. The upper and lower saw wheels must be adjusted on a vertical plane. The outer edge of the saw wheel should be perpendicular to the center of the cutting edge of the machine base. The lower saw wheel is adjusted by the retaining bolts on the suspended bearing bracket. Adjustment of the upper saw wheel: Loosen the locking bolt behind the upper saw wheel seat, rotate the adjustment screw, the upper wheel bearing seat moves relative to the body, so that the position of the upper wheel pressing the wheel is accurately adjusted in the horizontal plane. Adjustment.
3. The upper wheel lifting device is used to correctly adjust the center distance of the two wheels in order to tension and load and unload according to the length of the saw blade. Push the hand wheel forward, turn the hand wheel, and the upper saw wheel can rise or fall in parallel. If you need to adjust the inclination of the upper saw wheel, pull back the hand wheel to separate the pin on the hand wheel shaft from the left cone tooth. At this time, turn the hand wheel and only the right bevel wheel can rotate through the screw rod. The right guide post can be raised and lowered separately to achieve the purpose of adjusting the inclination. This will not only tension the saw blade, but also prevent channeling.
4. In order to ensure that the tension of the saw blade is balanced during sawing, the woodworking band saw machine is equipped with a lever tensioning device. The hanging weight must be increased or decreased according to the width and thickness of the saw blade used. Generally not less than the recommended value.
5. The woodworking band saw machine is equipped with a saw card device to prevent the saw blade from swinging violently at high speed. The saw card can be raised and lowered frequently according to the size of the sawed wood. The lining of the saw card should be made of hard mixed wood, and the end of the saw head should be facing the saw blade. The gap between the saw clamp and the saw blade is generally about 0.15-0.25mm.
6. The woodworking band saw machine is equipped with a backing device. Adjusting the distance between the backing plate and the saw blade can be used to saw a variety of different specifications of boards and talents.
