distance between the bottom of the screw head and
the face of bar is the height of cut.

3. Hook the screw head onto the cutting edge of the
bedknife and rest the rear end of the bar onto the
rear of the roller (Figure 11).

4. Rotate the adjusting screw until the roller contacts
the front of the gauge bar. Adjust both ends of the
roller until the entire roller is parallel to the bedknife.
Important: When set properly, the rear and
front rollers will contact the gauge bar and the
screw will be snug against the bedknife. This
ensures that the height-of-cut is identical at both
ends of the bedknife.
5. Tighten the nuts to secure the adjustment. Do not
overtighten them. Tighten them only enough to
remove play from the washer.
