9. Lightly pinch the dollar bill against the blade
with the blade guides, re-position the air
nozzle if necessary, then re-tighten the blade
guide cap screws.
Note: The goal is to position the blade guides
as close as possible to the blade without
touching it during operation.

15° to the left and 45° to the right.
To adjust the table tilt:

nut underneath the rear of the table (see
