2. ADJUSTING RIP FENCE
1. The rip fence must be perfectly aligned with
the table T-slot, to verify this, align the edge
of the rip fence with the table T-slot and low-
er the locking lever (a, fig. 13) to lock in into
place.
Check to see if the edge of the rip fence and
the table T-slot are parallel.
If they are not parallel, un-
lock the rip fence and turn
it upside down. Adjust the
set screws (h, in fig.14) in or
out, verify your adjustment.
2. The lock lever pressure can be adjusted by
loosening the front lock nuts (b) as Fig. and
adjusting the set screws (c) the same amount,
make sure the fence remains parallel with the
table T-slot. Retighten lock nuts.
3. To set the fence perpendicular to the table,
place a square on the table and against the
side of the fence, loosen the top lock nuts (d)
and adjust the setscrews (e) until the fence is
perpendicular. Retighten lock nuts.
4. The pointer window (f) position can be ad-
justed if needed, loosen pan head screws (g),
reposition the pointer window and retighten
pan head screws.
3. ALIGNING TABLE T-SLOT PARALLEL WITH
BLADE
1. The table T-slot must be aligned parallel
with the blade. Using a combination square
(a, fig.15), measure the distance from the back
edge of the blade to the table T-slot. Pivot
blade forward 180º and remeasure the dis-
tance using the exact same point on the blade.
The difference between both measurements
must be equal to or less than 1/64”.
2. If an adjustment is necessary, loosen the
screws (b, fig. 16) which fix to the table, make
the needed adjustment until both measure-
ments are equal or less than 1/64” and retight-
en the screws.
4. ADJUSTING 45˚ AND 90˚ POSITIVE STOPS
The blade tilting mechanism of your saw is
equipped with a positive stop at 45 and 90 de-
grees. To check and adjust these positive stops,
proceed as follows:
1. Raise the saw blade to its maximum height.
2. Set the blade at 90 degrees to the table by
turning the blade tilting hand wheel counter-
clockwise as far as it will go.
3. Place a square on the table and check to see
if the blade is at a perfect 90 degree angle to
the table.
4. If the blade is not
at 90 degrees loosen
lock nut (a, fig.17) and
turn stop ring (b) in or
out.
The stop ring (b) should stop against the front
trunnion bracket when the blade is at 90 de-
grees to the table. Recheck and adjust further
if necessary. Retighten lock nut (a).
5. If the 45 degree
positive stop is not
set properly, turn the
same hand wheel
clockwise as far as it
will go and follow the
same procedure using lock nut (c, fig. 18) and
stop ring (d).
The stop bolt should stop against the front
trunnion bracket when the blade is at 45 de-
grees to the table. Recheck and adjust further
if necessary. Retighten lock nut (C).
5. ALIGNING BLADE GUARD SPLITTER OR RIV-
ING KNIFE WITH BLADE
The blade guard splitter and/or riving knife
must be aligned with the blade. If not properly
aligned, the splitter/riving knife will force the
workpiece sideways during the cut, increasing
risk of kickback.
Place a straight edge against the blade and the
splitter or riving knife and check for parallel-
ism. If an adjustment is needed, the mounting
position can be adjusted into alignment with
the blade using the adjustment set screws.
