New Band Saw Questions
I just got a new Jet 14" closed base band saw. As I was putting it
together, I was impressed with the fit and finish of the pieces, esp. after reading some of the comments others have made concerning their new saws, particularly the Delta band saws. Once I got it all together, I put a straightedge on the 2 wheels that the blade goes around, and found that they were approximately 1/4" out of coplaner. This results in the blade being a bit beyond centered on the upper wheel and a bit before centered on the lower wheel. The saw seems to cut ok, without excessive noise or vibration - at least I think so. I have never owned a band saw before. Is this a problem? Do I need to call the dealer on Monday? Thanks, Harvey |
