blades and blade Selection
The blade dimensions required for this band saw
is: .020" thickness, 1/2" width and 44-7/8" in length.
The special .020" thickness reduces flexure fatigue
and provides maximum tooth life. To maximize cut-
ting life, use a blade with the correct pitch (teeth
per inch) for the specific cutting job.
Blades are available in several pitches. To select the
proper blade, three factors should be considered:
The size, shape, and type of material to be cut.
The following suggestions are for selecting the
right blade for various cutting operations. Keep in
mind that these are broad guidelines and that blade
requirements may vary depending upon the specific
size, shape and type of material to be cut. Gener-
ally, soft materials require coarse pitch blades and
hard materials require fine pitch blades. Use coarse
pitch blades for thick work and fine pitch blades for
thin work. It is important to keep at least three teeth
in the cut (see "Typical Application").

from the guides.
4. To install a new blade, with the pulleys facing up,
insert the blade between the rollers and the faces
of the guides, making sure that the teeth on the left
side of the tool point towards the rear of the tool.
5. With one hand, hold the blade in place between
the rollers and the guides and use the other hand
to position the blade around the pulleys. Be sure
that the blade lies freely within the guard channel
before starting the tool motor.
6. Turn the tension lock handle 180° clockwise to lock
the position. This will secure the blade on the pulleys.
BE SURE THAT THE BLADE IS PROPERLY
SEATED ON THE PULLEYS BEFORE START-
ING THE CUT.
