ADJUSTING LOWER BLADE GUIDES
AND BLADE SUPPORT BEARING
Adjust the lower blade guides and blade support bearing after the the
upper guides and bearing have been adjusted.
1. DISCONNECT TOOL FROM POWER SOURCE.
2. Adjust the front edge of the guide blocks (B) Fig. 27 so that they
are just behind the “gullets” of the saw teeth. Turn the knurled knob
(C) Fig. 29 to make this adjustment. Check the support bearing (E)
Fig. 28. It should not be touching the back of the blade.
3. Loosen the two screws (A) Fig. 29. Move the guides (B) as close
as possible to the side of the blade, being careful not to pinch the blade. Tighten screws (A).
3. Turn the other knurled knob (E) to adjust the lower blade support bearing (D) Fig. 29 so that it is about 1/64" behind the back of
the blade.
