Can anyone help?

[Warren White]

I have included a picture of an addition to my Jet Bandsaw. It is a set of rollers (top and bottom) that I installed some time ago.

I have either misplaced or lost the instructions for adjusting the bearings to the blade. I have adjusted each bearing to be close to-but not touching-the blade in it's power off setting. I would like to get a copy of the actual instructions.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A quick check of a randm bandsaw manual showed steps like this

Guide Bearing Adjustment

1. Disconnect machine from power source.
Note: Blade must already be tensioned and track-
ing properly (Adjusting Blade Tension, page 11).

2. For the upper blade guide, loosen two thumb-
screws (E). For the lower blade guide, loosen
two setscrews (E) with the 3mm hex wrench
provided.

3. Slide the adjustment shaft (F) to position each
roller guide (D) approximately 1/16" behind the
gullets of the saw blade.
The roller guide (D) is mounted on a concentric
shaft (F). When the shaft is rotated, the relative
position of the guide to the blade can be changed.

4. Rotate each adjustment shaft (F) to position the
guides (D) within 1/32" of the saw blade.

5. Secure the roller guides (D) by tightening
thumbscrews (E, upper guide) or setscrews
(E, lower guide).
