Milwaukee Cam Shaft
Model Number: 45-08-0070
The Milwaukee 45-08-0070 is a genuine OEM Cam Shaft for the 2729-20 M18 FUEL Deep Cut Band Saw and the 6232-20 corded Deep Cut Band Saw. The cam shaft is a precision steel shaft in the band saw's drive mechanism: it is carried in the cam bushing and transfers the motor's rotation through the drivetrain that turns the blade and drives the cut. As a driven, load-bearing shaft, it has to run true in its bushing so the blade tracks and cuts smoothly. Because it carries drive load and spins at speed, a cam shaft that is worn, scored, or bent causes play, vibration, or rough running that shows up as poor cut quality or noise. Replacing it with the genuine Milwaukee OEM cam shaft restores a true, properly supported drive, where an off-spec shaft may not fit the bushing or carry the load correctly.
This cam shaft is identified as the Cam Shaft, Figure 20, on the Milwaukee service parts list for the 2729-20 M18 FUEL Deep Cut Band Saw, serial F83A, bulletin 54-40-2710, and as Figure 77 on the 6232-20 corded Deep Cut Band Saw, bulletin 54-40-6240; Milwaukee's cordless and corded deep cut band saws share most of their parts. It runs in the cam bushing (42-40-0105), which supports it and is a separate item, so replace the bushing along with the shaft if it is worn. Because Milwaukee specifies service parts by serial number as well as catalog number, verify your catalog and serial number against the official Milwaukee service parts diagram before ordering, since running production changes can alter part compatibility within the same catalog number.
