After the blade has been securely clamped inthe correct position, the arbor is removed from the eccentricblade jaws. The boring bar is placed through one side ofthe pin hole and both inside faces are machined with the. Fig. 2—Eccentric Blade Set Up on Milling Machine double acting cutter fastened in the boring bar.
