DW788 Blade Tracking question


dansnow

Recommended Posts

As my son is getting used to the new DW788 that arrived today, we noticed a small issue with blade tracking. Looking from the side there is almost .060" movement in the blade from top to bottom of the stroke. On my EX I could loosen the motor mount, rotate the motor slightly, and correct the issue.

 

Any suggestions that don't involve changing holes to slots on the arm mounts?

Hi Dan,  I ran into the same problem/s that you did.  First I had the blade tracking problem as you do, then I was told to go to Ricks scrollsaw ;post.  That had me puzzled for a while because I was looking on the SSV site here.   -  However thanks to Doug, - he put me on to the site which is here;  http://www.scrollsaws.com/

 

Go there, and you will find such a wealth of information that you will have to scroll down quite a bit to find the blade tracking article.  

You will enjoy all the information there, I think.

 

Cheers,

Ed
