that the blade is between the motor and the fence° Lock

Move the molar along the radial arm uoti_ the blade, when spun by hand, just _uches the front face of the fence (See Figure 20)° The indicator (Item 8, figure 19) on the "In-Rip" scale should now read 0. If not, shift the position of the indi- caat to read 0.

The same indicator should also read correctly on the "'Out- Rip" scale when the blade is in the out-rip positlon_ This indicator should be reset with any blade change.

The "Out-Rip"scale on the left side of the radial arm is only used when the fence is in its extreme rear position against the table clamps and the blade is in the out-rlp position. The some method of adjustment is used for this cote indicator except that the blade is positioned as shown so that 9°° is measured between the fence and the nearest blade tooth. (See Figure 2I).

The indicator should then be adjusted to read 9" an the "Out-Rip" _cale on the left side of the radial arm_

COMPENSATE FOR WEAR

Even though the finest materials and procidon workmanship have been u_ed to minimize wear it is reasonable to expect

some wear. Adjustments have been built into your Croft_ man sow to reduce or eliminate this wear.

COLUMN TUBE KEY ADJUSTMENT

:f excessive radlat arm movement is noticed even though ,t_e arm is locked in position, check the fit of the column tube key (item 2, figure 22) and the key'wayin the column tuber

Figure

1.Adjust by loosening the socket set screw (item I, figure 22), using the 7/16 hex "t" wrench.

2.Prexs vigorously against the rear of the column tube key (Item 2, figure 14) or C-clamp the key while slightly rocking the radial arm back and forth_ This causes the

key to seat properly in the keywoTo

3, Tighten the set screw (Item 1, figure 22) securely while maintaining pressure on the key.

YOKE CLAMP HANDLE ADJUSTMENT

The normal locking position of the yoke clamp handle (item 1, View A_ figure 23) is midway between the two sides of the yoke.

When the handle strikesthe yoke before locking, the handle may be adjusted as follows:

1.Remove sow guard and blade.

2.Set yoke clamp handle to Position A, Figure 23. (Mid way.)

3.Remove lock screw (Item 3).

4o With off-set screw driver turn slotted end of the yoke clamp (Item 2) counterclockwise until a slight snugness of the yoke clamp handle is felt at Position A, Figure 23.

CARRIAGE

To test for looseness in the carriage, firmy grasp the car- riage (Item 1, figure 24) at the levet of the baff races and apply a firm rocking motion.

Noticeable looseness may be adiusted as follows:

1. Remove sow guard and blade.

2o Place block of wood on table under motor and turn elevation crank until weight of motor just rests on block.

3.Remove carriage lock knob assembly (Item 2, figure 24) and carriage cover (Item 3, figure 24).

4.Loosen 3 hex head machine screws (item 1, figure 25), eccentric hold-down screw (Item 2, figure 25) and two

adjusting set screws in the holes on the side of the car- riage (Items 5, figure 2S)o Use 1/8 hex "L" wrench on

set screws,

5_ Rotate eccentric bushing (Item 3, figure 25) clockwise to obtain snug fit. The bali retainer (Item 4, figure 25) should be guided at both ends by hand to prevent cocking°
