3.2 Blade Guides

See Figure 3-1.

1. Lubricate the blade guide rollers every four hours of operation. Use one squeeze of a

NLGI No. 2 grade lithium grease from a grease gun to lubricate the bearings and remove

any sawdust.

CAUTION! Do not over-grease. Over-greasing will push the

seals out of the blade guide bearings.

2. Check the rollers for performance and wear every blade change. Make sure the rollers

are clean and spinning freely. If not, rebuild them. Replace any rollers which have worn

smooth or have become cone shaped. See The LT30HD/40HD Parts manual for blade

guide rebuild kits and complete roller assemblies.

3. The blade guide set screws on sawmills built after 9/93 are stainless steel which prevent

corrosion from making the screws difficult to adjust. Screws on older sawmills may be

replaced with the stainless steel screw.
