2.3 Fine adjustment

Fine squaring corrections can be made using a 4mm Allen (hex) in the two squaring adjusters.

Firstly, make any required adjustment to the angle of the Material Guide. This can be carried out using either adjustment
screw. When turning the screw clockwise the Material Guide at that point advances, rotating the guide about the other
adjuster.

Need help checking it is at 90 degrees when installed with a cutter? Go to 

Squaring check >

Once the angle has been adjusted, if the Material Guide needs to move parallel to align with another object/edge rotate
both screws by equal amounts. As a guide, one full rotation of the screw equals 1mm (0.040”).
