Riving Knife Adjustment
Lateral alignment
The saw blade and riving knife must be in line as
close as possible with each other (lateral
alignment) for the prevention of kickback. Upon
initial blade guard and riving knife installation
no further adjustment should be necessary.
Alignment should be checked and adjusted, if
required, after each blade change.
Check the alignment as follows:
1. Remove the blade guard (Figure 15).
2. Place a straightedge (A, Fig.15 on the table
so it rests against the blade (B, Fig. 15) and
riving knife (C, Fig. 15). Rotate the blade so
the top of the blade tooth touches the
straightedge.
The saw blade and riving knife must be in line. If
adjustment is required:
3. Remove the table insert.
4. Loosen the lock handle (A, Fig. 16) and
remove the riving knife, making a note as to
which direction the riving knife needs to be
moved to align it with the saw blade.
5. Using a 3mm hex wrench, make adjustments
to four set screws (D, Fig. 17) accessible
through openings located in the corners of
the floating clamp block (B, Fig. 17).
6. If necessary, repeat the above procedure.
Blade proximity alignment
The gap between the saw blade and riving knife
must be between 3 and 8mm(Figure 18) to
reduce the possibility of kickback. If adjustment
is needed, note whether the blade to knife gap
needs to be increased or decreased. Then
adjust as follows:
1. Remove the blade guard, pawl, table insert
and riving knife.
Referring to Figure 17:
2. With a 4mm hex wrench, loosen two socket
head flat screws(E).
Note: These screws are accessible through
located diagonally on either side of the lock
handle(A). They secure the fixed clamp
block(C) to the riving knife extension
plate(Fig.16).
Loosening these screws(E)will allow the
fixed clamp block(C) to slide back and forth
on the extension plate(F).
3. Slide the fixed clamp block(B) toward or
away from the saw blade as required.
