E. UPPER GUIDE ASSEMBLY
The upper blade support bearing (3) should be adjusted to within 1 /64" behind the blade back.
The blade support bearing prevents the blade from being pushed too far back on the wheel. It also
offers the blade rigidity and support during the sawing operation (See Figure 19).
1. Loosen set screw (4) and adjust accordingly. Retighten.
Figure 19 Shows location of set screw for guide adjustment

steel pins should be .002" to -.004" away from the blade (See Figure 20).
