3. Adjust the knife up or down with the hex wrench until it just barely touches the underside
of the setting block.
4. Securely tighten the gib lock bolts once the knife is adjusted correctly.
NOTE: Tighten all the bolts simultaneously, at the same rate, moving
back and forth between both bolts. Continue repeating the procedure
between both bolts until they are very tight.
5. When the gib lock bolts are tight, tighten the height adjusting screws until they touch bot-
tom of the indentations of the knives.
CAUTION! If the height adjusting screws are screwed too tight, the
knife will crack.
6. Repeat this procedure on all straight knives you have installed in the head.
