See Figure 5-2.
To adjust the blocks up, loosen the nuts on the outer adjustment bolts
and back the bolts out slightly. Tighten the middle bolt to raise the block mounting plate up
until it contacts the outer bolts. Check the space between the block and the blade. When
proper spacing is achieved, tighten the outer bolt nuts.
IMPORTANT!
The blocks should be parallel to the blade.
Check the space between the insert and the blade at each
side of the insert to insure it is parallel. Use the appropriate
outer adjustment bolt to tilt the insert mounting plate so the
insert is parallel to the blade.
Preventing sap buildup on the blade is critical when using the high-performance blade
guide system. If the wood you are sawing leaves sap buildup using plain water in the
blade lube system, use Wood-Mizer lube additive (4-Pak 60 oz. bottles part no. ADD-1).
Ceramic Guide Disks
1. High-performance roller/block guides only:
Inspect the guide disks. Disks that are
chipped or damaged can be reused by honing them smooth with a diamond honing block
(Wood-Mizer Part No. 017813).
