Assemble the guide, locking plate, and indicator arrow to the log scale indicator bracket using 
the M8 threaded knob.  Adjust the position of the indicator bracket forwards or backwards if the 
guide and locking plate bind on the log scale bracket as the sawhead is raised and lowered.

Store the other magnetic scale on the front side of the log scale bracket when not in use.
