Been messing with this setting today and for me 0.27 seem to be spot on with my MH 871......I have a 1351 as well so will try and get that perfect tomorrow.
Would the blade manufacturer influence this setting?

I'm running .13 offset on my 721 and Flexi and that seems to be the sweet spot on my machine.

I am using a 60 blade. I think the offset is the same on a 45 and 60 if i remember right?

offset should be different on 60 and 45 - can even change as the blade wears

To be honest with you... each machine is going to be slightly different. What works one person's machine may throw yours way of course. It's just one of those you have to play with and fine tune the machine to your liking. IMHO

+1 Firemalt.  Thumbsup that's while all blades come with a .25 offset "Starting" point. You then tweak one way or the other to make your machine cut better.
