NOTICE
The remaining instructions in this section cover factory settings which should already be adjusted correctly; however, we recommend checking the settings to be sure they were not bumped out of adjust- ment during the shipping process. If it is determined that a setting is out of correct adjustment, please refer to Section 8: Service Adjustments.

2.Open the access door (Figure 15) on the back of the machine, just below the fence adjustments.
