ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
CHECKING & ALIGNING THE RIVING KNIFE AND SAW BLADE (FIG.18-19)
If the riving knife is out of alignment with the saw blade, adjustment is needed.
• Unplug the saw.
• Raise the saw blade by turning the height adjusting knob clockwise.
• Remove the anti-kickback pawls and blade guard assembly. Place a framing
square or straight edge against both the saw blade and the riving knife. (see Fig. 18)
NOTE: Place framing square between carbide teeth and measure from blade.
This step will insure framing square is square against blade from the front to back
of blade.
• The saw blade and riving knife are aligned when the framing square contacts both
the blade and splitter evenly with no gaps.
TO ADJUST
• Remove the anti-kickback pawls and blade guard assembly.
• Loosen the screws holding the mounting bracket. (see Fig. 19)
• Reposition the riving knife left or right as needed to align the riving knife with the
saw blade.
• Once properly aligned, securely retighten the screws.
NOTE: The blade guard and riving kinfe must always be correctly aligned so that
the cut workpiece will pass on either side of the riving knife without binding
or twisting to the side.
WARNING: Improper riving knife alignment can cause kickback and serious injury.
