For your convenience, the adjustments listed below
have been performed at the factory. However,
because of the many variables involved with ship-
ping, it is possible some of these adjustments may
have changed during transportation and handling.
Before making any further service adjustments, we
recommend operating the machine on a trial basis to
ensure the best possible results.
Factory adjustments that should be verified:
•
Model ST1006 Knife Settings (refer to Page 39).
•
Table Parallelism (refer to Page 43).
• Depth-of-Cut Scale Calibration (refer to Page
47).
•
Fence Stop Accuracy (refer to Page 48).

Adjustments
Tighten Belt
The final step in the setup process must be done after
approximately 16 hours of operation. During this first
16 hours, the belt will stretch and seat into the pul-
ley grooves. After this time, you must re-tension the
belt to avoid slippage and burn out. Refer to Page
49 when you are ready to perform this important
adjustment.
Note:
Pulleys and belt can get hot. This is a nor-
mal condition. Allow them to cool before making
adjustments.
A small amount of black belt dust at the bottom
of the belt housing is normal during the life of
the machine and does not indicate a problem
with the machine or belt.
