8.1 - Product Guide Adjustments (Cont’d)
Adjustment 2 – DEPTH
Once the width of the channel is set, the Product
Guide Plate must adjusted so that it comes close
to the glass disc, without touching it. This is to
close any gaps where the chute meets the glass
disc.
Flip the Guide Plate (if necessary)
First, the Guide Plate must be installed with the
proper side up. The Guide Plate is labeled to
indicate which side should be up, based in the
setting of the Width Scale. If the Width Scale is
near the middle (5), either side may be up. To
change to Guide Plate, loosen two knobs and
remove the Guide Plate. Take the Product Guide
out of the slot and place it in the other slot. Re-
install the Guide Plate and tighten the knobs.
Depth Adjustment
Loosen the two knobs on the Guide Plate a small
amount, only enough to move the plate. Slide it
forward until it touches the edge of the glass disc,
and then move it back a bit, so that it does not
drag on the disc (adjust for minimum clearance).
As you tighten the two knobs, push down on the
back end of the Guide Plate, so that the pointed tip
of the Product Guide is resting on the glass disc.
Use your fingertip to confirm the point is down on
the glass. If you can feel the point, it is too high.
Note the position of the Guide Plate as indicated
on the Depth Scale. It should be approximately
the same number as on the Width Scale.
Also, before you tighten the knobs, you may slide
the product guide back and forth in it’s slot. The
default position is when the pointed tip of the
Product Guide aligns with the
second slot in the
air guide.
