Using Positive Stop
The positive stop (see
Figure 39) allows you to
quickly return the table to 0° from a right-tilt set-
ting. The positive stop is adjustable, allowing for
calibration, or if desired, minor deviations from 0°.
To use positive stop:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Loosen table tilt lock lever (see Figure 38 on
Page 32).
3. Tilt table to desired angle, then secure posi-
tion by tightening table tilt lock lever (see
Figure 38 on Page 32).
4. Loosen jam nut on stop bolt (see Figure 39),
and turn bolt until it just touches bottom of
table.
5. Tighten jam nut to secure stop bolt setting.
Note: It is always a good idea to check table
tilt scale and make sure positive stop bolt is
correctly calibrated.
To check/calibrate positive stop:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Loosen table tilt lock lever, and tilt table to
approximately 10° right.
3. Loosen positive stop jam nut, and lower posi-
tive stop bolt so it will not interfere with the
following steps.
4. Place a machinist's square flat on table against
side of blade, as illustrated in
Figure 40.
