Default Harbor Freight bandsaw

I sent for the portable bandsaw mail order from HF.
The variable speed motor is OK , but the guide rollers
aren't placed proper & let the blade dig into the housing.
My advice =
spend more money for a good, name brand unit.

Mine works fine, cuts iron pipes like butter so much better than a recip
saw. Return it and get you money back or exchange it.
