Setting the Bullet Guides
(continued)
Follow the same instructions and procedure for the moveable guide.
Loosen the 1/4” bolts holding the bottom bullet guides and drop the bullets downward
then re-snug them so they don’t fall out.
Loosen the top bullets and pull them upward so they are not touching the blade.
Set the right (moveable) guide by loosening the top 1/4” bolt and drop the bullets to the
blade. Bullets should touch the blade
with gravity only
and then re-tighten the bolt.
Note:
Do not apply any down pressure.
Next the bottom bullets are ready to set.
Loosen the left guide 1/4” bolt and then bring the bottom bullets up to the blade and apply
a small amount of pressure to the blade. This will ensure a good snug fit to the blade.
Retighten the 1/4” bolt holding the bullets up until the bolt is tight.
Repeat the same sequence for the right (moveable) guide.

without pinching or binding the band blade.
