7.Tighten the tilt lock handle located at the front of the saw.
8.Loosen the three mounting screws that hold the front trunnion and the three mounting screws that hold the rear trunnion using a 9/16" wrench. The front center trunnion bolt can be accessed through the slot for the tilt lock handle in the front of the saw.

13.Recheck the marked blade tooth at the front and rear position to insure that the adjustment has not moved.
14.If the adjustment moved, loosen the five bolts (all except front center) and repeat steps
15.When the adjustment is correct securely tighten all six bolts on the front and rear trunnion.
NOTE: Maintain a minimum 1/8 inch clearance between the right side of the blade and the table insert (viewed from rear of saw). This insures clearance when the blade is beveled.
