spacing or interval.
Remove the two hex bolts which secure the guide plate.
Move the guide plate as shown in the figure and secure it using
the hex bolts. The following interval settings are possible:
35 - 205 mm
70 - 240 mm

triangle ruler. Keep the handle down so that the
cut-off wheel extends into the base. At the same
time, adjust the angle between the guide plate and
the cut-off wheel with a protractor or triangle ruler.
