11. Level the zero clearance insert:
a. The zero clearance insert should be flush* with the saw table surface.
b. Place a straight edge (such as the metal ruler from a combination square)
across the saw table and the insert – the surfaces should be at the same
level (Fig. 5).
* The front edge of the insert may be below the saw table by the thickness of
a piece of paper folded twice. Place the folded paper between the insert and
straight edge to check. The rear edge may be above the saw table by the
same amount.
c. If adjustment is necessary, use a 2.5mm hex wrench (not included) to adjust
four (4) leveling screws (Fig. 5).
