Suddenly, my DB100 blade is not running smoothly. It's very "wobbly" and it makes it hard to line it up to the pattern I'm cutting. Can you help, please? Thank-you.

To fix a wobbly Inland DB-100 blade that is not running smoothly, check the alignment of the upper and lower wheels. The lower (fixed) wheel should be 1/2” from the inside of the frame. If misaligned, insert a 5/64” long arm Allen wrench through the hole in the lower left side of the saw’s frame, loosen the set screw on the brass arbor, adjust the wheel position, and then secure the set screw. Also, ensure proper blade tension, as the tension springs reduce stress on the blade. Using an Inland brand blade can help maintain correct tension.
