stop bolt underneath the table so that it just

assembly, and cutterhead guard.
5. loosen the outfeed table lock and rotate the

Tip: some advanced woodworkers have found
that they can virtually eliminate snipe by set-
ting the outfeed table in the following manner:
perform Steps 1–5. then lower the outfeed
table slightly so the knife or insert lifts the
straightedge off the table. place a ruler next
to the straightedge and rotate the cutterhead,
watching how far the carbide insert pulls the
straightedge. adjust the outfeed table and
recheck until the knife or insert moves the
straightedge only 5⁄32".
