Tooth Height Adjustments
Tooth height is determined by how much material is removed from the gullet of the blade.
The pusher wing nut controls how far the grinding head comes down and therefore con-
trols the gullet grind.
It is important
to understand that any adjustments of the depth/back grind for gullet grind
will also affect the back grind and face grind:
Lowering the wheel for more gullet grind will require more dressing from the back
angle of the wheel to prevent grinding the back of the teeth too heavy.
Dressing the wheel for less back grind will require readjustment of the depth/back
grind for the gullet grind.
