Loosen the Hex screw (A) holding the guide bearings
and move to approximately 0.5mm from each side of
the blade. NOTE: A sheet of A4 of photocopy paper is
approximately 0.5mm thick. Adjust the guide bearings
by turning the adjusting Hex screw (B), until the bearings
are set to the correct thickness. Re-tighten the Hex screw
(A), see fig 72-73-74.
Gently push the blade back against the thrust bearing,
use a scrap of wood and check that the side bearings are
still behind the teeth of the blade.
