4. Tighten the
socket head flat screws
( (E).
5. Reinsert the riving knife; tighten the
lock handle
(A, Fig. 14) and check that the saw blade/knife
gap is between 3 - 8mm (Figure 16).
Note:
Attempt to make the gaps as even as
possible.
Blade Alignment
Tools:
8mm hex wrench, combination square,
marker
Blade alignment with the table is adjusted at the
factory. After a period of use, or, after moving the
saw to another location, the blade may no longer
be aligned with the table.
To check and align the blade (refer to Figure 17):
1. Disconnect the saw from the power source.
2. Raise the blade guard up a way from the blade.
3. Choose a tooth on the far side of the blade
(towards the rear) and position the tooth
slightly above the table insert. Mark the tooth
with a marker. Measure the distance from the
side of the blade to the right T-slot edge using
a combination square. Make sure to measure
between the teeth not on the tooth (Figure 17).
4. Rotate the blade toward the front so that the
marked tooth is just above the insert. Measure
the distance from the side of the blade to the
right T-slot edge. The two measurements
should be the same.
5. If they are not the same, loosen four
hex
socket cap screws
(A, Fig. 18) that hold the
table to the base. Two are shown in Figure 18.
6. Make the needed adjustments and tighten the
four hex socket cap screws firmly.
7. Check the alignment once again after
tightening hardware.
