POSITIONING THE LOWER BLADE GUIDES AND THRUST BEARING

1. Loosen the two Allen bolts and slide the two blade
guides along the elongated hole in the mounting
bracket toward the blade.
2. Place a feeler gauge between one of the bearings
and the blade and tighten the Allen bolt until there
is a 0.02" gap left between the guide and the blade.
3. Repeat step 2 for the other guide on the other side
of the blade.
4. Loosen the lower set screw with the supplied 3 mm
Allen key.
5. Manually move the guide bearing mounting bracket in or out until the guides are at least 1/32” behind the
blade teeth. The guides must remain behind the blade teeth to prevent damage to the blade.
