6 Visually inspect machine for hidden shipping As part of the receiving inspection, check for broken ballbearings on the bearing carrier assembly. This is the assem-bly that the saw swivels on for miter cuts. CHECK ALL SIXBEARINGS. Two are located in the groove under thedegree plate. See illustration on page Sawing PositionNOTE: Model 1800 only before raising the head on theModel 1800, remove the head weight adjustment hand-wheel and install the 6021 T-Nut. Attach the threadedvertical support bar (6022) tightly to the rear of the drivehousing. See the chart on page 8. Adjust, if needed, tosquare blade with the vertical Pull hydraulic pin at bottom of hydraulic. Disengage com-pensating spring assembly.

7 Head is now free to raise to ver-tical position. Raise head up and over center. Hold headand gently let it move up to vertical position. DON T LETTHE HEAD DROP! See illustration on page 8, or Slide the vertical saw table into the blade and against theback of the horizontal table. Secure with the screwless viseor C-clamps.

8 Close hydraulic valve to lock in Open the covers of the idler and drive Pivot the chip brush to horizontal position and lock in Loosen blade tension T-handle sufficient to release the bladearound the wheels. Pull blade out of the blade guide Brush chips from blade guide bearings and housings. Wipebearing surfaces clean. Check that all bearings are running Check that the guide bearings are set correctly for the newblade thickness. Use a feeler gauge that is one thousandth ofan inch thicker than the blade. This is the best method becauseit does not rely on saw blade can also be used as a gauge, but it must be the blade has been installed and under proper tension,check for proper spacing.

9 Twist the blade at the idler and drivewheel side of the respective guide bearing housings. Thereshould not be any noticeable motion of the blade on the otherside of the guide bearings. Reset the gap to correct Place the new blade over the idler and drive wheels with theteeth facing toward you. The blade should run under theguides. The teeth should point out toward you and the tips ofthe teeth should point toward the motor end of the fast check is to compare the blade (as you place it over theidler wheel) with the decal on the top of the saw head. Checkto make sure the blade is on both orange By turning the T-Handle, apply tension to the blade until allslack is removed from the blade or the blade is pulled in astraight line across the top of the saw from wheel to the blade on each side of the guides and twist theblade.

10 Push down on the teeth with your thumbs and roll theback of the blade between the guide bearings. Proper tensionis 1-1/2 to 2 full turns (360) of the Proper blade tension is reached by grasping the T-Handle andapplying one full turn (360) on the tension handle. You canuse the casting number on the handle as a reference the power supply. Turn the saw on for a couple ofrevolutions to square the blade on the wheels. Turn the sawoff. Now put the second full turn of tension on the the saw on again for a few revolutions. Turn the sawoff. Check the tracking of the blade on the wheels. On sawswith a 9" wheel the blade runs centered on the wheels. Onsaws with 12" and 14" wheels the teeth of the blade shouldbe sticking out past the edge of the wheel.
