Adjusting Blade
Guide Assemblies
The blade guide assemblies were properly adjust-
ed at the factory; however, due to the vari-
ables involved with shipping, we recommend that
you check the blade guide assemblies. Properly
adjusted blade guide assemblies are essential
to making accurate cuts because they keep the
blade supported during operation, which prevents
the blade from wandering.
The blade guide assemblies help to keep the
blade straight while cutting. Use
Figures 20–22`
and the following descriptions to better understand
the components of the blade guide assembly.
