Aligning Scoring Blade
The goal in this procedure is to adjust the scoring
blade vertical and horizontal positions so that the
scoring kerf is the same width as the main blade
kerf and is aligned with it. This will require placing
the straightedge on both sides of the blades mul-
tiple times as you make adjustments.
