With a .006” feeler gauge between the rotor and bed knife, start to adjust the bed knife into the rotor knife using the adjusting screw. During the movement of the bed knife, slowly rotate the rotor back and forth checking the clearance. The proper clearance will be established across the length of the knife when a slight “drag” is felt on the feeler gauge. Partially tighten the bed knife hex head screws. Follow this procedure for all remaining bed knives.
