Table Adjustment
The bandsaw table will tilt left 10¡ and right 45¡ from horizontal. There is a positive stop adjusting stud so the table can be reset perpendicular to the blade after tilting it left or right.
To tilt the table:
1.Loosen the two knobs below the trunnions. See Figure 18 for knob location.
Figure 18. Trunnion lock knob.
2.Position the table to the desired angle. Refer to the angle gauge on the table sup- port bracket.
3.Tighten the knobs.
If you are setting the table tilt to the left, first tilt the table to the right, loosen the check nut on the positive stop adjusting stud, remove the stud, and then tilt the table to the left. Figure 19 shows the table in its maximum left tilt position.
