Use the water supply adjustment wheels and observe the following instructions:
Types Description
Main watering and visor
(1)
The water supply must be:
• sufficient to lubricate the edging point properly.
• sufficient to irrigate the visor evenly.
Watering at the back of
the edging unit (2)
The water supply must be sufficient to evacuate the polycarbonate
shaving that hit the base of the edging unit.
It must not be too plentiful to avoid the formation of a mist that could
moisten the TP rough edging wheel and create an undesirable
“ribbon” edging of the polycarbonate.
