Not so good vibrations
S. Foo <[email protected]>
Today while I was cutting some O1 stock with my saw in the vertical
position, it was vibrating a fair amount. After doing some checking (removing blade, removed the v-belt) I find it's the motor. In the horizontal position it seems to be lessened a bit due to gravity. Has anyone else had this issue? If so what did you do? I don't really want to buy a new motor, but that seems to be the thing to do. Any suggestions? |

Can't help - haven't had the guts to try it in the vertical position yet

@;-) Are you saying this isn't a mounting issue? Graciously, Jim Lakewood, CA All Hail Rube Goldberg! "S. Foo " wrote:

Well, it could be. However, it occurs to be that something is
unbalanced to cause it to vibrate like that. Hence my wonderings. If I were to place a rubber spacer between the motor and the casting it appears it would help a bit with the vibration, however, that's an interim solution. The vibration is what causes my blade to jump when cutting in the horizontal position, but I didn't figure that out till yesterday. In that position it's easier to compensate for (hang a weight on the end of the casting). Thanks....I'll look at it more. --- In 4x6bandsaw@..., "Jim E." <jim0000@a...> wrote: Can't help - haven't had the guts to try it in the verticalposition yet @;-) Are you saying this isn't a mounting issue? |
