G2X SERVICE CONSIDERATIONS
A properly set up and adjusted 50-1250 cutting head will provide smooth yet firm arm motion with minimal knob
backlash. If you are having difficulty turning the dials when the arm knobs are backed off, or if the dials turn very
easily then adjustments need to be made to the assembly. A poorly adjusted cutting head can cause poor rotor
surface finish.
The most common cause of poor dial feel is mis-adjustment of the tool arm ways. This procedure is for adjusting the
50-1250 Lateral Cutting Head. The cutting head may need to be adjusted if there is excessive play in the cutting
arms. Another indication of needing adjustment is when a cutting arm is locked down the thickness reading changes.
With a 4mm Allen Wrench (full size, high quality, no T-handle) and 37-1220 (2) Lock down levers, first install 37-
1220 Lock Down Levers:
· If the 50-1250 does not have the 37-1220 lock down levers, install them at this time.
· Remove the current arm lock down knobs (37-1200). Install the 37-1220 hold down levers.
The Adjustment:
1. Rotate the Adjustment dials so that the cutting arms move back and forth.
2. Grasp the front of the cutting arm and wiggle it back and forth while turning the lock down lever to lock the
wedge in place. Do this for both arms.
3. With the arms locked down, loosen the 2 wedge locating screws. This requires the use of a 4mm, high quality,
full size Allen wrench.
· Do Not use a "T" Handle Allen Wrench.
· Do Not loosen and then tighten one at a time, both screws must be loose at the same time.
4. Tighten the 2 wedge locating screws. Do this for both cutting arms.
5. Loosen the lock down levers and check the arms for movement.
