Baker Band Resaw - Rev 1, 09/08; WWW.BAKER-ONLINE.COM15Drive Wheel AdjustmentsThe drive wheel’s position is set in the factory. In most cases it never needs to be moved. Itcan only be moved in and out, and should only be moved when the wheel is cocked so thatthe face cannot be lined up with the face of the idler wheel. If you find that you must movethis wheel, you will find a set screw located under the rubber dust cap, on top of the squaretube, on the back side of the head rig, directly behind the wheel. With this setscrewloosened, the wheel can be moved in or out, or removed completely. If spindle and wheelassembly is moved, the spindle will need to be re-dimpled. Retighten setscrew whenfinished.Note: It is important to re-dimple the spindle after moving or replacing it.Idler Wheel AdjustmentsWhen looking at the front of the head rig, the idler wheel is on the left. This wheel is used toadjust tracking problems. Your tracking adjusters are located on the square tube on thebackside of the head rig. These two bolts make all of your tracking adjustments. The bolt onthe topside of the square tube is used for vertical adjustments. The bolt on the backside ofthe square tube underneath the motor is used for horizontal adjustments. Use these bolts totilt the idler wheel so that it is lined up with the face of the drive wheel. When the facesappear to be lined up, fine-tune it using the following procedure.Vertical Adjustments Rotate the wheel several rotations counterclockwise.Examine the positions of the back of the blade on thewheel at the top of the wheel and compare it to itsposition at the bottom of the wheel. The blade positionshould be the same in both locations on both wheels. Ifnot, proceed to the next step. If the blade needs to come forward at the top of thewheel, turn the vertical adjuster bolt clockwise. If theblade needs to go back at the top of the wheel, loosenlock nut then turn the vertical adjuster boltcounterclockwise. Manually turn the wheel several rotations and check thetracking as noted in the first step above. If verticaltracking is still not correct, repeat the procedure until theblade position at the top and bottom of the wheel is thesame (both idler and pull wheels). Rotate the wheel several rotations clockwise and repeatthe procedure, then tighten lock nut.Note: When blade is tracking properly, the blade gulletshould be flush with the front side of the wheels.VerticalAdjusterBoltFigure C: Vertical Viewwith Covering Removed |
