Blade perpendicu larity
The perpendicularity of the blade to the work surface, and also the blade tension,
are vital for achieving straight cuts. This adjustment is carried out with the help of
a workshop square, which should be placed adjacent to the blade resting on the
work surface.
" Position the square on the cleaned work surface and rest it against the blade,
close to the right vice jaw at a point where the blade teeth do not prevent
contact.
