2.Locate the slot in the cutter head shaft through the small hole in the backside of the machine directly above the vacuum port. Rotate the cutter head with a screwdriver until one of the blades is at its highest position.

3.Place a straight edge over the outfeed table and the blade, The straight edge must touch evenly on the outfeed table at both ends of the blade. Rotate the cutterhead slowly, and making sure the blade lightly touches the straight edge. If the straight edge rises or blades do not touch, follow the "RE- PLACING CUTTER BLADES" procedure in the "MAINTEN.
