Blade Guide Horizontal Tilt Adjustment
If the blade guides are tilted in the wrong direction horizontally, the back of the blade may contact
the flange as the roller is spinning down, causing it to push the blade away from the guide roller.
1. Remove the blade guide alignment tool from the blade and adjust the blade guide arm halfway in.
2. Remove the clip from the blade guide alignment tool. Place the tool against the face of the outer
blade guide roller.
See Figure 5-23.
3. Measure between the back edge of the blade and the tool at the end closest to the inner blade
guide ("B").
4. Measure between the back edge of the blade and the other end of the tool ("A").
The roller should be tilted slightly to the left (’A’ 1/8" [3 mm] less than ’B’ ±1/8" [3 mm]).
