5.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 10; otherwise, continue with the next step.
6.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 21 for adjustment details. Loosen the (2) adjust- ment screws and move left or right.
7.If this adjustment does not allow enough movement of the splitter, remove the table and wings, and set them to one side.
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.
8.The arbor bracket and motor pulley needs adjusting. 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 washers. Tighten the adjustment bolt securely.

9.Moving the arbor bracket moves the V-belts and pulleys out of alignment, so adjustment of the motor pulley is required. Simply loosen the setscrew in the middle groove of the pul- ley, and slowly slide the pulley toward the end of the motor shaft. Once the V-belts are back in alignment, tighten the setscrew securely.
10.Recheck the guard alignment to the blade and to the table top. Adjust as necessary and tighten down all the bolts before use. If the blade guard is properly aligned, re-attach the table, making sure there is adequate blade clearance through all blade adjustments.
11.Adjust the blade to 45¡. Raise and lower it through the full range. Re-adjust the blade to 90¡, then raise and lower it through the full range. There should be no contact between the blade, the base, the table insert, or any other part of the saw. If there is contact, repeat steps 7-9.
