-10- G1011 7" x 12'' Bandsaw Saw Pressure The pressure or force which the saw exerts when pushing through the workpiece is the result of the weight of the bow assembly counterbalanced by the amount of spring tension applied through the large coil spring on the back of the machine base. This should be set so there is a moderate amount[...]

G1011 7" x 12'' Bandsaw -11- Tension/Tracking If the tension seems correct, make the other adjustments to the saw (aligning guides, tracking and speed) and test run it on a scrap piece of material.
