ADJUSTING BLADE GUARD
1. After an extended period of time, the movable
blade guard (B) Fig. 45 might move erratically when the
cuttinghead is lowered. This can be easily corrected by
slightly tightening the nut (C) Fig. 45 until the lower
blade guard moves smoothly.
2. As soon as the cuttinghead begins to lower, the
lower blade guard (B) Fig. 45 should begin to move. If it
does not, loosen the nut (C) slightly until the blade guard
(B) moves smoothly.
