I have a Jet 14" bandsaw. I had a lower tire come off, but glued it back onto the wheel. Put on a new woodslicer and the bandsaw was resawing like a champ, that is until that lower tire came off again. Ordered new urethane tires, put them on, and the that blade would not cut at all. When the tire came off, the blade went into the guard and and messed up the teeth. I used a dremel and hit the teeth with a chainsaw sharpening bit. I was able to resaw what I needed for the moment, but it was not a good cut. Any hope for this woodslicer, or should I just order a new one?
What would have caused the tire to come off? Too much tension? I am pretty sure I had the tension set per common instructions.
