6.9 Blade Guide Flange Spacing
HINT: When adjusting blade guide flange spacing, loosen the top set screw and one side
set screw only. This will insure horizontal and vertical tilt adjustments are maintained
when the set screws are retightened.
1. Adjust the inner blade guide so the blade guide flange is approximately 1/16" - 1/8" (1.5 -
3.0 mm) from the back of the blade.
2. Loosen one side and one top set screw shown on the figure below. Tap the blade guide
forward or backward until properly positioned.
See Figure 6-14.
3. Retighten the set screws.
4. Adjust the outer blade guide in the same way so the inner blade guide.
NOTE: After adjusting the spacing of the rollers, start the blade motor for a moment. Then
stop the blade and check the spacing again.
