Pressure Rollers
The pressure rollers must all be the same dis- tance away from the table surface (conveyor track).
To adjust the pressure rollers:
1.Disconnect the saw from the power source!
2.Using the blade height handwheel, raise the bottom edge of the blade above the bottom-
3.Using the pressure roller height handwheel, raise the head of the saw high enough to allow a flat board to be placed under all the the pressure rollers.
4.Slowly lower the head.
—If the pressure rollers make contact with the board at the same time, they are adjusted correctly.
—If the pressure rollers do not make con- tact with the board at the same time, they need to be adjusted so they do. Continue with the next step.
5.Each pressure roller can be independently adjusted by loosening the jam nut and turn- ing the small setscrew (Figure 32). Note— Turning the setscrew clockwise, as viewed from the top, lowers the pressure roller; counterclockwise raises the pressure roller.
