To adjust the blade by moving the table:

1.DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2.Loosen the three table mounting bolts (Page 52) and adjust the table until the blade does not contact the insert. Tighten all the mount- ing bolts.

3.Make sure the blade does not contact the table insert when raised or tilted. Recheck parallelism of the blade to the miter slot (see Page 52). Adjust as necessary until the blade does not touch the insert.

Adjusting Fence

 

The rip fence included with your Model G0605X/

G0606X Table Saw is designed to provide excel-

lent ripping accuracy when properly adjusted.

There are four main adjustments to concern your-

self with: square, height, parallelism, and clamp-

ing pressure. Keep in mind that these adjustments

are interconnected and some trial-and-error may

be needed to achieve satisfactory results.

Figure 80. Nylon adjustment screws.

Place a machinist’s square on the table against

the side of the fence.

If the square does not

remain flush against both the fence and the table,

adjust the nylon screws until the fence and table

are square.

 

If the bottom surface of the fence is more than

1

/16" above the table at the front or back, adjust the

 

 

fence height using the nylon screws and the rear

rail foot (Figure 80).

 

Clamping Pressure and Parallelism

The fence clamping mechanism can be adjusted

simultaneously to set the right amount of clamping

pressure to hold your fence securely, and ensure

the fence is parallel to the miter slot.

Remove the fence and, using a 4mm hex wrench,

adjust the set screws shown in Figure 81 equally

on the rear side of the front bracket.
