    Default Square head cutter setup

    I have a Jeffwood 703, everything run well.
    I need to have the irons sharpened, which is no issue.
    Does anyone here have the knowledge or can point me to it, to correct set the blades when reinstalling?
    It appears to be a bit more specialised than doing blades on a round head cutter.
    Many thanks.

    You might try a PM to Melbourne Matty - L.S.Barker1970 on this forum. He runs some square head machines.

    We used to just measure off the face of the head to the edge with a 6” engineers rule. Then just roll the head around and use a block of hardwood on each side of the table, adjust the table up so one side just brushes the block, then check the other side. they’re pretty easy actually, then just do the bolts up, real tight.
