MAIN TABLE TO BLADE
PARALLELISM
Your CX208 will give a better result if the
main table is parallel to the blade. If it is not
parallel, the result you will get will be poor
and low quality.
To check if the table is parallel to the blade,
use an adjustable square and measure the
distance between the miter slot on the table
and the edge of the blade (front or back) as
shown in figure-18.
Figure-18 Measuring the distance using an
adjustable square
Now, lock the square in place and mark the
blade with a marker where you made the
measurement. Rotate the blade so that the
mark is opposite to the first position (front or
back) and slide the square to check if the
blade is at the same distance with the miter
slot.
The measurement should be equal on both
sides. If the measurements are not the
same, the table needs to be adjusted
parallel to the blade.
TO ADJUST THE TABLE
Make sure the switch is in the “OFF”
position and the cord is unplugged from the
power source.
Loosen the four mounting bolts (shown in
figure-36) securing the table on the cabinet
and adjust the table to get equal
measurements on both sides of the blade.
Once the table is parallel to the blade,
retighten the mounting bolts.

BLADE GUARD
SPREADER AND
RIVING KNIFE ALIGNMENT
The blade guard spreader and riving knife
must be aligned with the blade for safe and
accurate cutting operation.
If the blade guard spreader or the riving
knife is not aligned with the blade, the work-
piece will be pushed sideways during
operation and increasing the risk of kick
back.
Make sure the switch is “OFF” and check
the spreader or riving knife alignment using
a straight-edge.
Raise the blade to the maximum height
using the blade height hand-wheel. Place
the straight edge against the top and
bottom part of the spreader or riving knife
as shown in figure-20.
