To Adjust The Upper Blade Guides And Support Bearings:

1.The Upper Blade Guides (29B) and Upper Blade Guide Support Bearing (47B) should be adjusted only after the Saw Blade tension and tracking is properly ad- justed. (See Figure T.)

2.The Upper Blade Guides (29B) are held in place by the two Thumb Bolts (72B).

3.Loosen the two Thumb Bolts (72B) to move the Upper Blade Guides (29B) as close as possible to the side of the Saw Blade, being careful not to pinch the Saw Blade. Then, securely tighten the Thumb Bolts.

5.The Upper Blade Guide Support Bearing (47B) should also be adjusted sothe back edge of the Saw Blade overlaps the outside diameter of the Blade Guide Support Bearing by about 1/16”.

2.Loosen the two Thumb Bolts (72B) to move the Lower Blade Guides (32B) as close as possible to the side of the Saw Blade, being careful not to pinch the Saw Blade. Then, securely tighten the Thumb Bolts.

3.The Lower Blade Guide Support Bearing (47B) should be adjusted so it is about 1/ 64” (0.4mm) behind the back of the Saw Blade by turning the Bolt (59B).

To Adjust The Upper Blade Guide Assembly:

1.The Upper Blade Guide Assembly should always be set as close as possible to the top surface of the material being cut. To do so, loosen the Knob Bolt (25B) and raise or lower the Upper Blade Guide Assembly to the desired position. Then, securely tighten the Knob Bolt. (See Figure W.)
