help needed

[solarman216]

not my field, but in my industry we have smooth pulleys that are designed to throw the belt in the event of a problem and they have to be level
if it was on fixed legs (no castors) it was for a reason i.e stop people moving it

OK follow your thoughts, but this machine is so solid and rigid, I really cannot see that it can distort enough, but might be proven wrong, anyway had enough of it, won a Hobart on Ebay tonight, so will see what this brings, Rick

this might not help rick mate , but about 40 years ago I worked in a slaughter house ...... we had a few big band saws for splitting carcases ...... my memory isn't too good these days , but .....as far as I remember it had to be level , and the blade didn't just go around pulleys , it went through a couple of guide type things ......... not much use I know mate , but it might help .

yes Pete I have learnt a lot about meat saws of late, they have blade cleaners and pulley cleaners as well as carbide wear blocks, all have been replaced and some were not even present in the beginning, but all to no avail, all the forums I have visited say the same, bin it and get a Hobart, well that is what I have done, Rick
