Adjusting the Height of Cut
(HOC)
Model 03192 Only
On Model 03192, adjust the height of cut (HOC)
by adding or removing the adjustment (slotted) rear
spacers below the side plate pad on the cutting unit.
Note:
Spacers installed above the side plate pad do
not affect HOC.
The adjustment (slotted) rear spacers are stored
above the side plate pad; to increase HOC, move
them below the side plate pad.
There are 2 types of slotted rear spacers used for
adjusting HOC on Model 03192 cutting units:
•
1/4 inch (6.4 mm) slotted rear spacers, up to 3 on
each side.
•
0.075 inch (1.9 mm) thin slotted rear spacers, up
to 2 on each side.
Additionally there are 5 fixed rear spacers (1/4 inch,
6.4 mm) always located below the side plate pad.
Important:
Do not remove or adjust the 5 lower
rear spacers; this cutting unit is designed to
operate at a HOC between 1.25 to 2.00 inches (32
to 51 mm) and removing the lower fixed spacers
causes the HOC to leave that range.
