The side guide blocks must be tightened before running the machine to avoid
jamming the blade and damaging the machine and/or guide blocks.

When cutting gummy or green wood, the blade can become covered with resin.
You will find that the surround guide system ceramic blocks remove the resin as the
blade is moved through the guide blocks and keep that part of the blade clean. For
this reason it is recommended that the blocks be adjusted as close to the gullet as
possible, but the teeth must not come
in contact with the blocks, as they will
become damaged. Although the
guide blocks clean the blade, some
woods will still gum the blade and the
resin will have to be removed with
solvent.
.
The blade should run through the
center of the rear blade guide, and
the sid
e
guides should be parallel
with the blade. If they have been
moved out o
f
adjustment, adjust as
follows
:
Loose the side guides and move out as
far as possible. Loosen the guide
assembly and move back away from
the blade.
Move the back blade guide forward so
it just touches the back of the blade
and lock in position.
Loosen the guide clamp screw that
allows the side guides to move forward
and back. Adjust so that the ceramic
blocks are just behind the gullet of the
tooth and are parallel to the blade.
Retighten the clamp screws.
Gently push one side guide so that it
touches the blade and lock it in
position. Bring the other guide toward
the blade so that there is minimal
clearance between the blade and the
guide. You can use a thin piece of
paper to put between the blade and the
