To install the sliding table:
1.Remove the red shipping brace, shown in Figure 24, from the blade tilt mechanism.

2.Using a 12mm hex wrench, remove the three large cap screws (Figure 25) from the saw base unit.

removed from saw base unit.
3.Back out the parallel adjustment bolts shown in Figure 26, but do not completely remove them or the jam nuts that are installed on them.

4.While the sliding table is still in its crate, pen- cil a light mark on the front of the table that references the middle mounting hole. Note— This step will save time when positioning the sliding table on the base unit.
5.Now, locate the middle attachment hole on the base unit (where you removed the large cap screws in step 2) and pencil a light align- ment mark on the front of the machine base unit.
6.Use at least four strong people to lift the slid- ing table onto the base unit. The edge of the sliding table should be up against the edge of the base unit table and the penciled refer- ence marks should be aligned with each other.
7.Have two of your assistants hold the sliding table in position so that it does not fall while you are securing it to the base unit.
