Table T-slot to blade parallelism
Your table saw will give the best results if the table T-slot and the rip fence are
adjusted parallel to the blade. If either of these are not exactly parallel, your cuts
and your finished work will be lower in quality, but more importantly, the risk of
kickback will be increased. Take the time to adjust your table saw properly. A few
minutes now will be time well spent.
1. Disconnect the saw from power source!
2. Use an adjustable square to measure the distance from the table T-slot to a
carbide tip on the blade, as shown in figure 30. Make sure that the face of
the adjustable square is even along the T-slot.
3. With the end of the adjustable square just touching the blade tip, lock the
square in place. Now, mark the blade tip with a marker where you made this
measurement.
WARNING!
The saw blade is dangerously sharp. Use extra care or wear
gloves when handling the blade or working near it.
4. Rotate the marked blade tip to the other end of the table insert.
5. Slide the adjustable square down to the other end of the table insert, and
compare the distance from the marked blade tip to the end of the adjustable
square.
•
If the blade tip does not touch the end of the adjustable square similar to
the first measurement, the table will need to be adjusted. Proceed to step
6.
•
If the blade tip measurement is the same on both sides, go to step 7.
6. To adjust the table, loosen the four cap screws in the table mounting locations (see figure 31) and slightly tap the table in
the needed direction. Repeat Steps 2–5 until the blade and miter slot are parallel.
7. Tighten the table mounting cap screws with Hex Wrench, alternating manner. (See figure 31)
Adjusting 45° and 90° positive stops
The blade tilting mechanism of your saw is equipped with a positive stop at 45°
and 90°. To check and adjust these positive stops, proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect the saw from power source!
2. Raise the saw blade to its maximum height.
3. Set the blade at 90° to the table by turning the blade tilting handwheel
counter clockwise as far as it will go.
4. Place a square on the table and check to see if the blade is at a perfect 90°
angle to the table.
•
- If the blade is not at 90° loosen lock nut (C) as figure 32 and turn stop
ring (D) in or out. The stop ring (D) should stop against the front trunnion
bracket when the blade is at 90° to the table. Recheck and adjust further if necessary. Retighten lock nut (C).
•
- If the 45 °positive stop is not set properly, turn the same handwheel clockwise as far as it will go and follow the same
procedure using lock nut (A) As Figure 32 and stop ring (B). The stop bolt (B) should stop against the front trunnion
bracket when the blade is at 45 °to the table. Recheck and adjust further if necessary. Retighten lock nut (A).
