Default Calibrating bitzenburger fletching jig for offset

I have a quick question regarding calibrating the Bitzenburger for offset.

I am using the Easton FMJ 340's @ 28"s and am utilizing the 2" Blazer vanes. This is fora Bowtech Old Glory 29" draw @ 67#'s. I have the straight fletch but would like a 2-4 degree offset and don't see any instructions within the manual on how to properly calibrate the offset. Any recommendation on the proper offset and how to calibrate to jig?

Thanks for the help.

You really can't calibrate the offset to specific degrees. Put the arrow in the jig and then loosen the allen screws on the two adjustment knobs. You just have to work with the adjustment until the entire base of the fletch contacts the shaft. If it doesn't look like enough, or looks like too much move the fletch up or down in the clamp and repeat the process until it looks to be about where you want it.

with the blazers and a small diameter shaft you wont get 4 degrees but you can get 2.5 - 3 and as stated above it is trial and error till you get it once you have it how want it lock those screws down
