<p>A combined tensioning and tracking assembly (40) is provided for use with a band saw tool having a continuous saw band (30) supported by three spaced-apart pulleys (20,22,24). The assembly comprises a bar (60), supporting the shaft (132) of the pulley (24), mounted for sliding and tilting movement. The sliding movement adjusts the tension of the saw band (30) and the tilting movement adjusts the "tracking" of the saw band. The sliding movement of the bar (60) is accomplished through an over-center arrangement (88) which tensions and releases the saw band (30). The bar (60), overcenter arrangement (88), and structure for achieving sliding and tilting movement of the bar are all attached to a bracket which is mounted on the frame of the saw band tool (10).</p> |
