Saw Table with Throat Plate

Your band saw has a square 11-3/8 in. (28.9 cm) aluminum saw table with tilt control for maximum accuracy. The throat plate, installed in the saw table at the factory, allows for blade clearance.

Scale and Scale Indicator

The scale and scale indicator show the angle or degree the saw table is tilted for bevel cutting.
