Woodworker's Journal 1994-18-3, страница 17Photo 7 THRUST BEARING j of saw blades. They sometimes use thrust hearings to make up for their inability to gel blades to track correctly. The proper function of thrust bearings is to keep saw blades from being forced off the back sides of wheels when slock is being cut. When no stock is being fed into the saw. the thrust bearings (and guideblocks) don't do anything. In no circumstances should the blade of a free running saw rub against the ihrust bearing. This can ruin both the blade and bearing. After hlade tracking has been set. both the upper and lower ihrusi bearings should be adjusted so they're in. from the back of the blade t l ig. B). Blades should bear equally on both upper and low er thrust bearings during cutting. When a blade rides on one thrust bearing but not the other, it lends to iw ist. The result is poor cutting control and broken saw blades. Setting the Guide Post The upper blade guides arc attached to the guide post. The guide post is adjusted up or down so that the blade guides can be set close to the surface of the slock being cut. The closer you set the upper guide to the lower guide, the more cutting control you have. Guide posts on inexpensive machines (and some expensive ones) rarely slide in line vv ith the blade. Recheek upper guide alignment every time you raise or lower the guide post. Standard Abrasive Sheets p< Econ-Abrasives WE MAKE ABRASIVE BELTS ANY SIZE, ANY GMT!
