Default Wandering bandsaw blade

Hi ...

I'm trying to make friends with my new Sears 10" bandsaw. I'm trying to
cut some 1/4 inch hardboard for some templates and the blade tends to
twist as I'm follwing my curves. The manual says nothing about blade
tension. I've lowered the guide so it's just above the cutting surface.
Any suggestions of what I need to do to keep the blade on track will
be appreciated.
