Loosen the four screws shown in Figure 82

at the bottom than at the top, place a shim
between the bottom of the bracket and the
frame (Shim "A"). This will tilt the bottom of
the guide post toward the blade.
—If the guide post to blade distance is less
at the bottom than at the top, place a shim
between the top of the bracket and the
frame (Shim "B"). This will tilt the bottom of
the guide post away from the blade.
