Check and Adjust Blade Tension

What happens here

Before beginning to mill, check and adjust the blade tension. Use the tensioning handle to bring the blade tension to approximately 2800-3000 PSI, as indicated on the blade tension gauge. When a new blade is first installed, it tends to stretch a bit, so continuous monitoring of the gauge is important. After initial tensioning, let the mill run for a minute to allow the blade to settle, and then re-check and adjust the tension as needed.

Goal: Set the blade tension to the recommended PSI.
