The blade guide rollers should also be slightly cocked. If the moving blade makes contact
with the leading flange edge of the roller, momentum may cause the blade to slip over the
flange. Contact with the trailing edge would force the blade upward onto the roller.
NOTICE: When adjusting blade guide spacing, loosen the top set
screw and one side set screw only. This will ensure horizontal and
vertical tilt adjustments are maintained when the adjustment screws
are retightened.
OUTER BLADE GUIDE
1. Ensure that the distance between the flange on the outer blade guide roller to the back
edge of the blade measures to 1/8” (3.0 mm).
2. Adjust the roller back or forward if necessary.
See Figure 4-8.
3. Loosen the top screw and one side screw.
4. Gently tap the blade guide forward or backward until properly positioned.
5. Retighten the screws and jam nuts.
