Fitting Scoring Blade Shims
The scoring blade comes in two parts to allow the shims
to be inserted between so that the cut can be aligned
exactly with that of the main blade.
1. Remove the scoring blade as instructed previously
and place on the main table, see fig 133.
2. Lift away the upper half of the blade and locate the
shims. Place one or more on top of the lower half,
inserting holes in the shims over the locating pins on
the blade. Replace the upper half of the blade making
sure it seats down correctly, see fig 134-135.
3. Replace the blade and tighten.
