G9744Z Metal Cutting Bandsaw

The blade guide bearings are mounted on the
front and rear arms. The rear arm is adjustable
and should be set as close to the workpiece as
possible. This will help ensure straight cuts by
keeping the blade from twisting and drifting off of
the cut line.

To adjust the rear blade guide arm:

Loosen the knob shown in

Figure 17 and slide

the rear blade guide as close to the workpiece as
possible, then tighten the knob.

Blade Guide Arms

The front blade guide arm has a self-adjusting
wire brush that makes contact with the blade to
help clear away chips and extend blade life (see
