To adjust the sliding table parallel with the main blade:
1.DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!
2.Move the blade tilt to 0˚ (blade 90˚ to table), and raise the main blade up to the maximum height.
3.Mark one of the blade teeth with a felt tip pen. This will be your reference point when taking measuring points, so you take them in the same location each time.
4.Move the sliding table all the way back, and measure the distance "A" in Figure 118, between the marked tooth and the edge of the miter slot.
