When the blade loses its cutting efficiency in one place along
its cutting edge, reposition the shoe to utilize a sharp, unused
portion of its cutting edge. This will help to lengthen the life of
the blade. To reposition the shoe, push the shoe button in the
"A" direction with a click and reposition as shown in the figure
which allows you to make five-way adjustment. To secure the
shoe, push the shoe button in the "B" direction with a click.
