How many inches out does the bar extend? Most of the VMac ones needed an extension. I "think" when Elite started making their version of this cutter, they made it longer, but I don't remember.
You will want to get several sets of tires and experiment with them. There is no "one profile fits all" regardless if you are using template or radius type machine. Sometimes you want flatter cuts, sometimes you want rounder.
A "typical" Burris right side, I think we used to start at 52." You will want to move the radius bar pin several times. To make a good round cut, we moved the pin 5 times on our right side 33s. For a racer, this is acceptable and it'll cut as good as any other machine. For a shop like ours, it takes entirely too long to be productive, and profitable, to cut customer tires this way - the template machines like Jones are so much quicker.
As said above, the bit is a big key.
We have them in stock if you need.
Just give us a call at the shop number. I'm always pretty free with support and information/tips as well.
