One key step to chafing the blade on this is releasing the tension switch. It’s the black lever next to the M12 symbol.

*Perfect band saw for the hobby enthusiast **MyBest.Tools** Easy to set up and square. Had it running in 10 to 15 minutes. Quality of cuts will depend on the quality of the blades.*

What's the size of the blade

[@TheOGvolvulus]

Did they change the safety switch? I just bought this and you have to hold the safety with your thumb, it doesnt lock in place weird

Bought one and was disappointed it wouldn't do 1 1/2" pipe by just a smidjin.

(It’s already not an America company)Chinese Milwaukee Tool More than 96% Milwaukee tools are made in China. Milwaukee Tool has carried out tool-design job in China since 2015 year, the design job also is slowly sent from USA to China. Most plastic materials have been changed from America DuPont, GE to Chinese sources. The red plastic，Nylon，of Milwaukee tool handles/housings has been provided by a Chinese supplier since 2010，originally the Nylons were from DuPont，the Nylons-changeovers caused the handles/housings weak，like screws very likely strapped/slipped in screw holes. Also black hard plastic for battery pack cases/covers，their materials were changed from GE ABS/PC to a ABS/PC from a Chinese supplier，caused battery pack case more likely broken, brittle, the same story is happening on anti-flam Nylon material of battery frame，changing from DuPont to a Chinese supplier. Lots of bad tools always first are sold to USA because nobody inspects the outgoing, and because in USA Milwaukee Tool has the strongest warranty service ability than in other countries. During Milwaukee production process, more than 5% defects found out by workers, also more defects failed to be screened out. Bad tools include noise as gear,bearing aligned badly, sometimes press trigger no reactions at all, metal parts like shaft, gear, pinion, important screws broken as poor heat-treat, motor stator rubbing with rotator, fine wire laid inside tool broken as poor design and poor workmanship, big percentage of oil leakage for hydraulic tools, etc. 15% chance you will get a bad tool, bigger chance you will get bad tools for nailer, planer, hydraulic tools, cable/tube cutter, as they are first generation of tools for Milwaukee Tool, because comparing with sawzall, drill, Milwaukee Tool sucks at nailer, planer, hydraulic tools, cable/tube cutter,AC tools, drain cleaner, blower. Milwaukee Tool workers only get less than 300 dollars monthly salary，even plus OT to 276 Hours a month（normal month-workhour is 176 hours，plus 100 hours OT. Chinese law only allows no more than 36 hours OT per month）， after OT 100 HOURS for every month，a worker can get 500 dollars monthly salary，this salary very low for living in a big city in China, plus bad working environment(the management has no such safety-first mindset that loud noise but no issuing ear plugs to workers, at dangerous stations very few goggles issued to workers. workers stand more than 10 hours every day during on-duty time), so Milwaukee Tool with huge employee turnover，400% yearly turnover，ie workers averagely work only 3 months for the factory, cause workers without enough experience，lack of training，then unable to ensure good quality. And worse worker- turnover with most Milwaukee Tool’s suppliers. After Milwaukee tools launched one year， Milwaukee Tool will do so-called VE, value engineering ，actually cost-down, change Germany trigger to Hong Kongese trigger even Chinese trigger/switch, change Japanese chuck to Chinese chuck, etc. Milwaukee Tool has a team, 50 persons to do this VE. The quality would obviously become worse after the VE. Milwaukee Tool has really bad quality system, lose much profit because of failing to keep quality constant, like critical metal parts broken, every 2 months taking place, no methods to resolve these issues in 10 years, starting from 2008. And always look for cheap materials, cheap suppliers, worker salary is always at minimum salary, only 30 dollars higher than monthly minimum salary. Milwaukee Tool has less experience for making power tools comparing with Bosch，Dewalt, Makita. Milwaukee Tool only has grew fast from 2008 year. Milwaukee Tool copies and compares life test with Bosch, Dewalt tools during new product development stages, even when doing troubleshooting during R&D, would measure dimensions of these competitors’ components. This company is also an ugly company, in 2014, a Hong Kongese manager tried to rape a female employee during their business trip, the company fired him and less than half year, hired him again as a manager, then the female employee left this company and lost her job. In 2015, in its factory dormitory a more severe rape case really took place by a male senior manager to a girl, and Milwaukee Tool didn’t do anything to him, like firing him, like reporting him to police，helping officer to arrest him.

Yeah my ten year old Milwuakee tools are nicer than new ones, will be a shame when they finally break down.

[@MichaelJordan-hn4zd]

My blade is so wobbly :(

[@MichaelJordan-hn4zd]

I’ve tightened it up 4 times now. Should I just screw the adjustment screw as tight as possible?
