note:
f.
The Bandsaw is equipped
with a 64” diameter, .025” thick,
15/32” wide, 14 teeth per inch Saw
Blade (82). The machine will also
accept Blades in 4, 6, 8, and 10
tooth sizes. The choice of Blade
pitch is determined by the thickness
of the material to be cut. The thinner
the workpiece, the more teeth is rec-
ommended. A minimum of 3 teeth
should engage the workpiece at all
times for proper cutting.
(see Figure u.)
caution: if the teeth of the saw
blade are so far apart that they
straddle the workpiece, severe
damage to the workpiece and/or
saw blade will result.
