WARNING!
To reduce the risk of injury, always un- plug tool before making any adjust- ments.
Dampening Screw
With the tool properly mounted, adjust the dampening screw so that it contacts the front pulley guard (Fig. 4). Note: overtightening the dampening screw will reduce blade tension, which may cause the blade to slip. Tighten the locking nut after adjusting the dampening screw.The dampening screw is intended to prevent vibration while the tool is in opera- tion. If clearance exists or the tool does not cut smoothly when in operation, loosen the locking nut, insert a hex wrench and tighten screw firmly against the front pulley guard.
Adjustments
Once the tool is mounted on the table, check for proper positioning of the tool and blade relative to the table. Two simple adjustments will provide straight, parallel cuts.
Vertical Blade Adjustment
When properly adjusted, the blade should be at a 90o angle with the work surface (Fig. 5). Insert the hex wrench into the head of the front handle retaining screw. Place a square on the work support surface and against the side of the blade, above the teeth. Grasp the switch handle and rotate the tool until the side of the blade is flush with the vertical side of the square. Firmly tighten the upper and lower mounting bracket screws.
Parallel Blade Adjustment
Loosen the two swivel bracket clamping nuts approximately three turns and tap the ends of the bolts to free them (Fig. 6a). This will provide maximum movement for adjusting purposes. Line up the back of the work- piece stop with the edge of the support pad (Fig. 6b). This will provide clearance between the work piece stop and large work pieces when the tool is raised to the “locked” posi- tion. Place the square against the vertical supports of the mounting vice and the side of the blade, above the teeth (Fig. 7). Grasp the handle and pivot the tool until the side of the blade is flush with the square. Firmly tighten the swivel bracket clamping nuts (Fig. 6a).
NOTE: After following the complete assem- bly instructions, make a few trial cuts to be sure the blade is square with the stock. With the tool unplugged, make minor adjustments as necessary.
Vice Assembly
Insert the swivel pin into the hole in the mount- ing vise and center it. Position the chain hook with the fingers facing the table and insert into the recessed hole in the swivel pin. Thread the crank nut onto the chain hook until the threads are at least even with the bottom of the crank nut (Fig. 8).
After the table is completely assembled and adjusted, place the power cord over the top of the tool and secure it to the mounting bracket.
