ensure straightedge stays parallel
♦ Clean board surface and underside of blade with mild detergent and soft cloth. Wipe dry

Adjustments
It is recommended that you follow this sequence when making
adjustments to the position of the straightedge blade:
1. Set the brakes for optimum braking strength
♦ Unscrew brake knobs as far as they will go.
♦ Retighten brake knobs one full revolution only
♦ Loosen top adjustment knobs
♦ Push metal side brackets toward the center until
both brake pads rest against edges of board
♦ Retighten top adjustment knobs
♦ Brakes are now set and ready to use. Simply
tighten and loosen brake knobs as necessary
♦ Be sure to keep top adjustment knobs tightly
secured or the brakes will not function
2. Set straightedge blade parallel to edge of board
♦ Loosen one wire capture screw on either side of the blade
♦ Pivot the blade until it is in the desired parallel position
♦ Retighten wire capture screw
