Model W1822 (For Machines Mfg. Since 9/10)
SETUP
13.Mark the right blade edge that is even with the table, then move the sliding table all the way toward the table saw front.
14.Use the adjustable square and feeler gauges to measure the distance between the sliding table miter gauge slot and the main saw blade at the mark you made in Step 13. This is distance "A" shown in
Figure 11.
15.Move the sliding table all the way toward the rear of the table saw, rotate the saw blade so the mark you made in Step 13 is at location "B", then take the measurement of "B".
—If the difference is equal to or less than 0.004" between the "A" and "B" measurements, the sliding table parallelism is acceptable. Continue with
Step 16.
—If the difference between the "A" and "B" measurements is greater than 0.004", place masking tape between the sliding table and saw table on one end or the other to make the sliding table parallel with the saw blade.
Repeat Steps
16.Insert the
Note: The extension table provides additional workpiece support and should be positioned as needed during operation.
Tip: Instead of rotating the lock levers to secure the extension table, you can pull outward on the levers to disengage them, then use a 4mm hex wrench to tighten the cap screws in the center of the levers.
If the sliding table does not travel exactly parallel to the saw blade, the workpiece could bind and kickback toward the operator, causing serious personal injury. You MUST make sure that the sliding table travels parallel with the saw blade before beginning operation to avoid kickback injuries.
