MAKING ADJUSTMENTS (CONTINUED)
ADJUSTING THE BLADE HEIGHT
USING THE MITER GAUGE
RIVING KNIFE HEIGHT
ADJUSTMENT AND ALIGNMENT
For all through cuts, the top of the blade points should
be above the workpiece and the bottom of the blade
gullets are below the top surface of workpiece.
For non-through cuts, the top of the blade points
should be set to the depth of the cut.
To adjust the height of the blade, refer to Figure 34 and
do the following:
Make sure the bevel lock lever is in the locked (down)
position.
Adjust the blade height by turning the height
adjustment wheel. Clockwise will raise the blade and
counterclockwise lowers it.
There are two miter gauge grooves, on either side of
blade. When making a 90° cross cut, use either groove.
For beveled cross cut use the groove on right so that
the blade is tilted away from the miter gauge (G) and
hands.
See Figure 35.
To adjust miter angle loosen the miter gauge lock
knob. Rotate the gauge until desired angle on scale is
reached. Tighten knob.
To change the position of the riving knife, remove
the throat plate then raise the blade assembly to the
highest position by turning the height adjustment wheel
clockwise on the front of the saw.
To adjust the riving knife from one position to the other
(Through cut/Non-Through cut) raise the riving knife
lock lever to the up position to unlock the riving knife.
See Fig. 36. Next, gently move the riving knife to the
right to disengage from the lock pins in the riving knife
lock assembly, then slide up and forward for Through
cut or down and back for Non-through cut until you feel
the lock pins engage the riving knife. See Fig. 36. Riving
knife is marked with Through Cut and Non-Through Cut
position that align with the table surface when in the
correct position. Push the riving knife lock lever down
to lock the riving knife in place as shown in Fig. 36a.
Riving knife assembly should appear as shown in Fig.
36b.
Once riving knife is properly adjusted, re-insert throat
plate. (See Fig. 14)
