I have a jet 14 inch band saw. The tracking arm is bent so that the tracking knob must be turned almost completely in to get the blade on the crown.
Is this a common problem and what is the cause of it. How can I prevent this from happening with the replacement parts that I will install.
The wheels are not coplanar with the lower in farther than the upper so that when the blade is on the crown of the upper wheel it is about 1/4" more toward the outside of the lower wheel. Can any washers or shims be used to move the lower wheel out.
Thank you for any answers.
