Front Blade Guide Assembly 42-28-0206

This is an authentic front blade guide assembly for a band saw. The purpose of this part is to keep the blade steady, so it cuts in a straight line. It also supports the rear wheel blade. This part consists of a guide block and three bearing guides. Over time the bearings will wear and can cease and the block itself can get damaged by the blade. For this quick and simple repair, you will need to unfasten the screws holding it in place with a screwdriver. If the screw is hard to reach, adjust the tension and this will help to bring the housing forward so you can fit your screwdriver in place.
