Rear Spacers
The number of rear spacers determines the aggressiveness
of cut for the cutting unit. For a given height of cut, adding
spacers, below the side plate mounting flange, increases the
aggressiveness of the cutting unit. All cutting units on a
given machine must be set to the same aggressiveness of cut
(Number of rear spacers, part no. 119–0626), otherwise the
after-cut appearance could be negatively affected (Figure 16).
