Choosing the right blade

Thing with the Kity when it comes to set up is the wheels don't have a crown and a lot of the videos describe set up for machines that do. I used to set the blade so the back of gullet lined up with the front of tyre or fractional y further back so most of the tooth overhangs the front of the wheel. This was what my Kity instructions recommended and worked great but seems contradictory to a lot of online videos that suggest the blade should run in the middle of the tyre.

I have helped replace/tension bands on crown wheeled mills (trekkasaw, autotrek and a couple of old statics)

and mate has a Norwood with no crowns which caused a bit of confusion when we first used it.

No wooden guide blocks just an alloy fence. Customer gave it to me when he had clear out so don't really know if everything's there and lookin closely the bed appears to be slightly twisted🙁
