Default How do you adjust the cutter bit on Aloris Tool Holders

In article , Steve says...

How is the degree above centerline adjusted on Aloris type quick
change tool holders?


The tool holder has a sort of setscrew stop that gives
nearly micrometer accuracy in setting the height of
the tool above the bed.

The angle of the tool is adjusted by loosening the
hold down bolt and turning by hand.

They are independently adjustable.

Typically the cutting edge is set as nearly on center
as you can. The best way to do this is to face off
a piece of stock - when the tip of the tool does
not leave a tit on the end of the stock (too low)
then it's right.
