entire mounting plate (No.3).
After adjusting, securely tighten the set screw (No.4) for the mounting plate (No.3).

NOTE Before the trimmer mechanism is activated, the cam
follower crank 2 (No.1) is located under the condition that a
point of tangency of the cam follower (No.4) is over the
tangential line of the cam shaft (No.2) and the lower shaft
(No.3) at 3mm distance. This is the standard condition.
Make the following adjustments based upon this standard
