Guide post

the guide post, shown in

figure 72, connects

the upper blade guide assembly to the bandsaw.
the guidepost allows the blade guide assembly to
move up or down to be as close to the workpiece
as possible. in order to cut accurately and safely,
the bottom of the blade guide assembly must
be no more than 1" above the workpiece at
all times—this positioning provides the greatest
blade support and minimizes the amount of mov-
ing blade exposed to the operator.

To adjust the blade guide assembly on the

guide post:

1. disConneCt BandsaW FroM poWer!

2. Make sure that the blade tension, blade

tracking, support bearings, and blade guides
are adjusted correctly.

3. loosen the guide post lock knob shown in

figure 72.

4. turn the guide post handwheel to raise or

lower the guide post until the upper blade
guide assembly is within 1" from the top of
the workpiece.

5. lock the guide post in place with the lock

knob.
