2. Carefully remove the old blade from the tool holder.
3. Insert the new blade between the tool holder and the knife
depth adjustment shoe. Keep the point of the blade toward
the center of the tool holder.
4. Gently seat the flat end of the blade against the pin stop with
the blade point toward the center of the tool. Retighten the hex
screw.
To change the shoe setting
CAUTION: Do not use a micrometer or calipers to measure
the vertical distance. The knife blade tip is very delicate and
can easily be broken by the use of such instruments.
CAUTION: Knife tool blades are brittle. Do not strike the tip
against the carriage spindle during installation.
1. Loosen the hex screw with the Allen wrench, but only enough
to allow you to turn the eccentric nut.
2. While turning the nut, observe the shoe as it pivots to cover
more or less of the knife tip. The shoe setting must be
adjusted by eye.
3. Change the setting only a little bit at a time between test cuts
so that adjustments are made in a continuous direction, rather
than by rotating the nut alternately back and forth.
