6.Recheck the splitter alignment to the blade and to the table top. Adjust as necessary and tighten all the bolts before use. If the blade guard is properly aligned, please skip ahead to Step 13; otherwise, continue with the next step.
7.If the splitter is positioned to the left of the blade, alignment cannot be achieved by washer placement. Adjustment of the front support bracket is required. See Figure 20 for adjustment details. Loosen the 2 adjust- ment screws and move left or right.
8.If this adjustment does not allow enough movement of the splitter, 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
The table and wings represent a very heavy load. DO NOT over- exert yourself while lift- ing or moving the table and wings – get assis- tance.
The arbor bracket and motor pulley now need to be adjusted:
9.Loosen the adjustment bolt shown in Figure 22, and slowly slide the arbor bracket towards the end of the shaft. Only move the arbor bracket a distance equal to the amount of misalignment between the blade and the splitter, or a little more. You can always adjust the splitter back to the left with wash- ers.
10.Tighten the adjustment bolt securely.
