WARNING:
Before performing any adjustment, make sure tool is unplugged from power supply and switch is in off position. Failure
to do so could result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Make sure the blade guard is reinstalled immediately after making any adjustment which requires it to be removed.
Failure to heed this instruction could result in serious personal injury.
The table saw has been adjusted at the factory for making very accurate cuts. However, some components might have
been jarred out of alignment during shipping. Also, over a period of time, readjustment will probably become necessary
due to wear.
Carefully check alignment with a framing square before beginning adjustments to confirm whether they are necessary.
Use test cuts after completing adjustments to avoid damaging workpiece.
WARNING:
Rip fence must be aligned to blade so that wood does not bind,
resulting in kickback. Failure to do so could result in serious
personal injury.
DO NOT loosen any position screws for this adjustment until
alignment has been checked with a square to be sure adjustment
are necessary. Once screws are loosened, items must be reset.
WARNING:
Unplug saw. Remove blade guard and anti-kickback pawls. Raise
the blade by turning height adjusting knob.
WARNING:
The adjustment must be correct. If it is not, kickback could result
in a serious injury and inability to make accurate cuts.
WARNING:
Make sure the blade guard is reinstalled immediately after making
any adjustment which requires it to be removed. Failure to heed
this instruction could result in serious personal injury.
Rip fence and blade alignment is set at factory and in most cases will not need to
be adjusted. However, the alignment should always be checked after installing
blade or before making cuts, and can be adjusted if necessary. If rip fence is out
of alignment with blade, adjustment is needed.
To check/adjust
◌ Place the framing square (91) beside the blade (30), and unlock the fence rails
lock lever (37) to move the rip fence (18) up to the square.
◌ Lock the fence rails lock lever (37) and note the measurement on the rip scale.
◌ Move the fence back and rotate the framing square (91) 180° to check the other
side.
◌ If the two measurements are not the same, loosen the position screws (81) on
the extension poles and then align it.
◌ Retighten the position screws with 5 mm hex key (supplied). Recheck alignment
after position screws are retightened.
◌ Reinstall the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls.
◌ Make two or three test cuts using scrap wood. If the cuts are not true, repeat the
process.
ALIGNING RIP FENCE TO BLADE (Fig. 31)
This saw has positive stops that will quickly position the saw blade at 90° (0°) or
45° to the table. Angle settings of saw have been set at the factory and, unless
damaged in shipping, should not require setting during assembly. After extensive
use, they may need to be checked.
To check 90° (0°) bevel
◌ Unplug the saw.
◌ Raise the blade to the maximum height by turning the height adjusting knob
clockwise.
◌ Remove the anti-kickback pawls and blade guard.
◌ Using a framing square (91), set the blade (30) to exactly 90°.
◌ If the blade stops bevelling before it gets to 90°, loosen the 90° stop set screw
(92) (located at the left of the bevel track on the front), and then adjust it to 90°.
◌ With the blade set at 90°, slowly turn the 90° stop set screw (92) until you feel
resistance. Bevel the blade away from 90° a little, and then back to the stop.
◌ Re-measure the angle and repeat the stop adjustment as necessary until the
blade stops at 90°.
To check 45° bevel
◌ Unplug the saw.
◌ Raise the blade to the maximum height by turning the height adjusting knob
clockwise.
