Adjusting Alignment

The spreader/riving knife mounts to a block that can be repositioned to correctly align the spreader/riving knife to the blade. The mounting block adjusts by turning the set screws in each corner of the block. Figure 15 shows the set screws associated with controlling the mounting block position. Before proceeding, verify blade-miter slot parallelism, as specified in your original manual.
