ADJUSTING TA B L E
The saw table has been aligned at the factory so the miter
gage slots are parallel to the saw blade; however, it is
recommended to check the alignment before initial
operation as follows:
1.
DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM THE POWER
SOURCE.
2.
Place a combination square (A) Fig. 70, on the table
with one edge of the square in the miter gage slot, as
shown, and adjust the square so the rule just touches one
of the teeth on the saw blade at the forward position, as
shown in Fig. 70. Lock the square in this position.
3.
Rotate the saw blade so that the same tooth you used
in STEP 2 is in the rear position, as shown in Fig. 71, and
check this distance. Both the front and rear measurements
should be identical.
4.
If an adjustment is necessary, loosen the four screws
that hold the table to the saw cabinet.
5.
Shift the table until a position is found which brings the
saw blade in the center of the table insert slot, and parallel
to the miter gage slot.
6.
Tighten the four screws that were loosened in STEP 4.
