  • Blade must be changed to cut plastics

  • 93.5" blade length

Documentation

  • Could not find any info online, very generic bandsaw

Maintenance

Change blades and Set-Up a Bandsaw describes essentials but PS blades have often been damaged by being bent, and a slight kink in the blade will make a noise, although the blade works as it should.

History

Repaired and upgraded by Joseph in January/February 2016.
