BLADESERT™ BAND
SAW BLADE GUIDE
User Instructions
Instructions
Our unique BladeSert™ eliminates the need for upper blade guides by providing blade support where it most crucial: at the point of sawing. The BladeSert™ will wear with saw use and the slot that the blade passes through will widen over time.
Using a worn BladeSert™ allows for excess play in the blade and the blade becomes more likely to break. How fast this happens will depend on use and your sawing style. To get the most from your saw and blades you should
- Check the BladeSert™ for wear each time you use the saw.
- You should always install a new BladeSert™ whenever you install a new blade.
- The BladeSert™ will wear with saw use. The slot that the blade passes through will widen over time. Using a worn BladeSert™ allows for excess play in the blade and the blade becomes more likely to break. How fast this happens will depend on use and your sawing style.

You should check the BladeSert™ for wear each time you use the saw. Immediately replace the BladeSert™
when it begins to show signs of widening and wear. You can use the "X"
behind the slot as a wear guide. When the slot has worn out beyond the
reach of the legs of the "X" (enhanced detail
image) it is time to replace the BladeSert. It is no longer providing proper support for your blade.
- The "X" also serves as reminder not to deflect the blade more than this amount in either direction.
- For use with all DB-100 Band Saw blade types
Removing / Installing a BladeSert™
The BladeSert™ is designed for easy removal and installation
- To remove is simply open the front cover of the saw and push up on the BladeSert™ to lift it above the work surface where you can then grab it and remove it. You do not need to remove the blade if you have one installed.
- Use a cloth or old toothbrush to clean the opening of any residue.
- Place the new BladeSert™ into the work surface by sliding it back into the opening, making sure the blade passes through the slot and the split end faces the saw front. Make sure it is seated in its opening and does not stick up above the table surface.
- Secure the front cover.
