Bandsaw tyre failure issue
I have a Record Power SBS250 bandsaw ...
I don't use it much, once maybe twice a year for around 30 minutes ... but every year (or so it seems) when I do want to use it - the rubber tyres on the outside of the blade drive wheels are snapped. (both were broken when I went to use it on w/end) When you look at them the rubber seems to have deteriorated and has loads of cracks .. this makes the machine a real pain as new tyres are ~£13 each. When not in use the blade tension is slackened off .. and you can't over tension the tyres as tension set by wheel diameter. Anybody else have this problem ? |
