3. With the blade installed and properly tensioned, hold a straightedge close to the center of both
wheels. Make sure the straightedge fully extends across the wheels, as shown in Figure.61 on the
previous page.
— If the wheels are coplanar (see Figure.62, "A"), the straightedge will evenly touch the top and
bottom of both wheels.
— If the wheels are not coplanar (see Figure.62, "B"), place the straightedge on the lower wheel
first (ensuring that it touches both the top and bottom rim), then adjust the upper wheel
tracking knob to make the upper wheel coplanar with the lower wheel.
— If the wheels are coplanar (parallel with each other), but the straightedge does not touch the
rims of both wheels (see Figure.62, "C"), then shim the wheels as instructed on the next page.
