I just received a new Bladerunner bandsaw blade in the mail from Iturra Designs. After replacing the factory blade, I am having problems properly tensioning the new blade. It seems that the blade may be too long? :eusa_thin
Has anyone run into this issue before? I don't want to mess up the spring, but when it is set to the manufacturer's recommended 4-6 range and the tension lever is engaged, there is still quite a bit of slack. The tension gauge (a sticker on the inside of the upper wheel housing) goes up to 8. Even on 8 there is not enough. Please help!
