Blade Guide Re-installation
NOTE: Before re-installing the blade guide assemblies, remove the
blade guide adjusting screws and apply a lubricating oil such as
10W30 or Dexron III to each screw. This will prevent the screws and
threaded holes from corroding and make screw adjustments easier.
1. Position outer blade guide assembly (with waterlube tube) to the mounting block on the
blade guide arm so the that roller flange is 1/8" (3.0 MM) from the blade.
2. Position the inner blade guide assembly to the mounting block on the saw head so that
the roller flange is 1/16" (1.5 MM) from the blade.
3. Tighten the two previously-loosened tilt adjustment screws to secure the blade guide
assembly.
