MAINTENANCE Wear Life SECTION 4 MAINTENANCE This section lists the maintenance procedures that need to be performed. This symbol identifies the interval (hours of operation) at which each maintenance procedure should be performed. Be sure to refer to the motor manual for maintenance procedures concerning the blade motor.
MAINTENANCE Blade Guides Blade Guides 1. Check the rollers for performance and wear every blade change. Make sure the rollers are clean and spinning freely. If not, rebuild them. Replace any rollers which have worn smooth or have become cone shaped. See the Parts manual for blade guide rebuild kits and complete roller assemblies.
MAINTENANCE Miscellaneous Lubrication Miscellaneous Lubrication 1. Apply a thin film of a lithium grease to the blade guide arm to help prevent it from rusting. 2. Lubricate the feed track chain with an easily penetrating oil such as WD-40. CAUTION! Never apply grease to the feed track chain.
MAINTENANCE Drive Belt Adjustment Drive Belt Adjustment WARNING! Do not for any reason adjust the drive belt with the motor running. Doing so may result in serious injury. See Table 4-2. Check the drive belt tension after the first 20 hours, and every 50 hours thereafter.

Adjust the drive-side blade wheel if necessary. See Figure 5-8. Use the horizontal adjustment screws (marked with the blue and yellow arrows in the figure below) to adjust the drive-side blade wheel.
Alignment Saw Head Adjustment Saw Head Adjustment See Figure 5-9. The saw head should be set perpendicularly to the vertical mast. Using the two sets of adjustment screws in the mast slide pads, you can adjust the saw head in relation to the mast.
Alignment Blade Guide Arm Vertical Adjustment Blade Guide Arm Vertical Adjustment 1. Adjust the blade guide arm out to within 1/2" (15 mm) of full open. 2. Measure the distance from the top surface of the feed track to the arm. See Figure 5-10.
Alignment Blade Guide Arm Horizontal Adjustment To adjust the rollers, locate the cam bolt inside the housing and turn until the arm is lowered or raised as needed. Recheck the arm in both, open and closed positions. Repeat adjustments until the arm is the same distance from the track feed in the open and closed position.

Alignment Blade Guide Arm Horizontal Adjustment See Figure 5-12. Adjustment Nuts Adjustment Nuts SM0066 FIG. 5-12 4. Adjusting the outside two rollers inward will cause the flange to move away from the blade. 5. Adjusting the two outside rollers outward will cause the flange to move toward the blade. 6.
Aligning the Blade Guides Aligning the Blade Guides Each Wood-Mizer resaw has two blade guide assemblies that help the blade maintain a straight cut. The two blade guide assemblies are positioned on the cutting head to guide the blade on each side of the material being cut.
Alignment Blade Deflection Blade Deflection Perform the following steps to achieve proper blade deflection with the blade guides. 1. Raise the saw head until the blade is 200 mm (7.9”) above the feed track. Measure the actual distance with a tape from the top of the track to the bottom of the blade. 2.
Alignment Blade Guide Vertical Tilt Adjustment Blade Guide Vertical Tilt Adjustment Check that the blade guide does not tilt the blade up or down. A Blade Guide Alignment Tool (BGAT) is provided to help you measure the vertical tilt of the blade. 1.

Alignment Blade Guide Vertical Tilt Adjustment recheck the tilt of the blade. Loosen jam nuts and turn screws to tilt roller up or down SM0070 FIG. 5-15 5. Measure the distance from the bottom of the tool to the top of the feed track chain at the rear end of the tool.
Alignment Blade Guide Spacing 5.10 Blade Guide Spacing HINT: When adjusting the blade guide spacing, loosen the top set screw and one side set screw only. This will ensure horizontal and vertical tilt adjustments are maintained when the set screws are retightened. 1.
6. Use the side set screws to adjust the horizontal tilt of the roller. 7. Repeat steps 3-7 for the inner blade guide roller. NOTE: Once the blade guides have been adjusted, any cutting variances are most likely caused by the blade. See the Wood-Mizer® Blade Handbook, Form #600. MHdoc092116 5-18...
Alignment Blade Height Scale Adjustment 5.12 Blade Height Scale Adjustment After the entire resaw has been aligned and all adjustments have been made, check that the blade height scale indicates the true distance from the blade to the feed track chain. 1.
