Blade orthogonality
The procedure for correcting and adjusting the blade to 0 degrees in order to
make cuts at right angles to the fxed vice jaw. To make orthogonal adjustments at
0˚, use a workshop goniometer or a simple 90˚ square. Operation sequence:
" place the head in the lowest position;
" Position the goniometer or square against the fixed vice jaw adjacent to the
blade;
If an error in orthogonality is found, realign the blade guide heads as follows:
" loosen the TCEI head locking screws (A---A) and uniformly adjust grub
screws (B---B) until blade orthogonality in relation to workpiece rest shoulder,
is obtained.
" After adjusting, check and restore blade perpendicularity.
