Your table saw will give the best results if the

miter slot and the rip fence are adjusted paral-

lel 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, this condi-

tion increases the risk of kickback. Take the time

to adjust your table saw properly. A few minutes

now will be time well spent.

 

Note: For safest and most accurate adjustments,

use a Superbar and Master plate (see Figure 62

on Page 44).

 

To adjust the blade parallel to the miter slot:

1.DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!

2.Use an adjustable square to measure the distance from the miter slot to a carbide tip on the blade as shown in Figure 76. Make sure that the face of the adjustable square is even along the miter slot.

slot.

3.With the end of the adjustable square just touching the tip, lock the square in place. Now, mark the carbide tip with a marker where you made this measurement.

The saw blade is dangerously sharp. Use extra care when handling the blade or working near it. Serious injury is possible.

4.Rotate that 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 dis- tance 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.

—If the blade tip measurement is the same on both sides, go to Step 8.

6.To adjust the table, loosen the three bolts in the table mounting locations (see Figure 77) and slightly tap the table. Repeat Steps 2-6until the blade and miter slot are parallel. Do not forget to tighten the table mounting bolts when finished.

7.Now check to see if the blade remains paral- lel to the miter slot when tilted to 45°.
