Hi guys

I am looking for some advice regarding a DeWalk DW876 bandsaw. I recently purchased the saw secondhand and knew nothing about them. Well, I am learning fast!

The blade tensioner which is a knob on top the saw appears to be seized solid. No amount of release fluid is making any difference. 

Is this a common fault on the DW876?

Has anyone found a solution?

Many tthanks!!
