Aligning Work Table
4. Loosen flange nuts shown in Figure 34.
Figure 34. Work table alignment nuts.
x 3
5. Adjust table so distance "A" equals distance
"B" (
Figure 33), with
1
⁄
16
" gap between table
and sanding disc.
6. Re-tighten flange nuts from Step 4.
7. Re-check miter slot parallelism and spin disc
by hand to verify that sanding disc does not
touch work table. If necessary, repeat
Steps
4–6 until proper work table alignment is
achieved.
— If distance "A" is not equal to distance "B"
and/or there is not a
1
⁄
16
" gap between table
and disc, proceed to
Step 4.
The work table must be aligned so that the miter
slot is parallel to the sanding disc for accurate
miter sanding, and with
1
⁄
16
" gap between the work
table and sanding disc to prevent the disc from
rubbing against the table during operations.
Work table alignment should be checked and
adjusted, if necessary, before each use or any
time the work table is removed and re-installed.
To align work table:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Set work table angle to 0° (see Setting Work
Table Angle on Page 17).
3. Check miter slot parallelism by measuring
distance from each end of sanding disc to
edge of miter slot (see
Figure 33). Distance
"A" should be equal to distance "B" with
1
⁄
16
"
gap between table and disc.
Calibrating Miter
Gauge
The miter gauge is pre-calibrated at the factory.
However, during shipping or after prolonged use,
the gauge may come out of alignment. Follow the
instructions below any time you notice the miter
gauge producing inaccurate results.
To check and calibrate miter gauge:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Align work table.
