Blade Alignment

The blade position can be adjusted slightly in case it contacts the table insert when raised or tilted. This adjustment can be made either by moving the whole trunnion assembly, or by just moving the arbor bracket. Try adjusting by mov- ing the whole trunnion first, this is the easier of the two ways.

To adjust the blade position by moving the trunnion:

1.Disconnect the machine from the power source!

2.Remove the table and wings and set them to one side. Be sure to note the position of the table shims. Replace them to their original position before re-attaching the table.

3.Loosen the four trunnion mounting bolts as shown in Figure 45, and nudge to either the left or right depending on where the blade is hitting the saw.

The table and wings rep- resent a very heavy load. DO NOT over- exert yourself while lift- ing or moving the table and wings – get assis- tance.

4.Reattach the table, making sure there is ade- quate blade clearance through all blade adjustments. Recheck guard alignment to the blade and to the table top. Adjust as nec- essary and tighten down all the bolts before use.

5.If the blade is still contacting the insert, repeat Steps 1-4. Check all other adjust- ments.

6.Recheck the blade to miter slot adjustments, and adjust as necessary.
