25 I thought it was a good deal to work a bandsaw into my needs in
woodwork
ing. Question: I picked it up at a yard sale with three blades for $25,
and
thought it would be a good starter bandsaw. I brought it home and
download
ed all of the manual and parts list. I spent most of Monday cleaning it
up.
(Though it was obviously well maintained but not used for a long time.
Mud
Wasp nest under the table and in the knobs gave that away.) Based on the
m
anual I adjusted the alignment, and turned it on. I think it works
perfectl
y. I did some play cuts, and noticed that it appeared to burn the wood
slig
htly when I cut curves. Since I did not smell any burning I thought there
m
ay be a little rust on the blade. Me question is a slight burning on the
cu
rves normal with this type of bandsaw, or is it something I am doing.
I have this model and can NOT keep and thin (3/16" wide blade on the saw?

It keep jumping off the wheels?



Where did you find a manual and do you know where I can find one today?
