Step 1 - Adjust the Angle Adjustment Pin
1. The angle adjustment pin (Part No. 61731-035) is
located near the 21, 28, 34 degree marking on the left
of the nose. It has two settings, 21 degrees and 28/34
degrees.
2. To adjust the angle pin to your desired angle, first
remove the O-ring (Part No. 61731-032) from the angle
adjustment pin (If you cannot get it off with your fingers,
use a pair of tweezers). Then re-insert the pin through
the hole for the desired angle setting (Fig. 4).
3. Re-install the O-ring.
Step 2 - Adjust the Angle Adjustment Screw
1. Slide the feeder shoe (Part No. 61731-081) all the
way back along the magazine until it latches (Fig. 5).
2. Using the smallest hex wrench included, loosen and
remove the hex screw (Part No. 61731-080) on the mov-
able plate (Part No. 61731-079).
3. Move the plate so the hex screw sits in the hole of
the desired angle setting. Reinstall the hex screw and
tighten it.
Step 3 - Adjust the Angle Adjustment Wheel
1. Unscrew the angle adjustment wheel from the joint
plate by turning it counterclockwise (the locking nut for
the wheel screw is welded to the bracket and cannot be
removed).
2. Tilt the magazine to desired angle. Then re-install
and tighten the angle adjustment wheel.
