5.Loosen adjustment bolt (D) Fig. 24, and corresponding bolt at the rear of the machine (not shown.).

6.Carefully move the spindle height lock knob (E) Fig. 24, up or down until the metal rod (A) is 90 degrees to the table surface. Then tighten adjustment bolts (D) which were loosened in STEP 5.

ADJUSTING TABLE 90 DEGREES (FRONT AND BACK) TO THE SPINDLE

The table has been adjusted at the factory so the table surface is 90 degrees, front and back, to the spindle and further adjustment should not be necessary. However, rough handling during shipment or repair or replacement of certain components might disturb this setting. To check and adjust the table surface 90 degrees (front and back) to the spindle, proceed as follows:

1.DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE.

2.Tighten the spindle height lock knob.

3.Insert a “straight” section of 1/2 inch diameter metal rod (A) Fig. 25, which is at least 6 inches in length, into router collet (B), and tighten collet (B) as you would a router bit.

4.Using a square (C) Fig. 25, either on the front or rear of the table, place one end of the square against the metal rod (A) as shown. Check to see if the table surface is 90 degrees to metal rod (A) (front to back). If an adjustment is necessary, proceed as follows:

5.Loosen two screws (E) Fig. 25, that fasten the rear of the table to the cabinet.

6.Rotate leveling nut (F) Fig. 26, which is located at the rear of the machine and under the table counterclockwise as far it it will go up into the table.

7.Rotate leveling nut (G) Fig. 26, right or left until table surface (front and back) is 90 degrees to metal rod (A).

8.Turn leveling nut (F) Fig. 26, clockwise until it just contacts top of cabinet.

9.Tighten two screws that were loosened in STEP 5.
