Loosen the side support mounting bolt. Use a 3/8" ratchet to rotate the
pin until the side support is square to the bed.

Repeat the vertical check for the remaining side supports and adjust as necessary.
Blade Height Scale Adjustment
After the entire sawmill has been aligned and all adjustments made, check that the blade
height scale indicates the true distance from the blade to the bed rails.
1.
Move the saw carriage so the blade is positioned directly above one of the bed rails. Mea-
sure from the bottom edge on a down-set tooth of the blade to the top of the bed rail, near
the inner blade guide assembly.
2.
View the blade height scale with eyes level with the indicator. The scale should indicate
the actual distance from the blade to the bed rail. Adjust the indicator if necessary.
Loosen the indicator bracket mounting bolts. Adjust the bracket up or down until the indi-
cator is aligned with the correct mark on the scale (+0 -1/32 [0.8 mm]). Retighten the
bracket mounting bolts.
