SETUP

Table Stop Adjustment

An adjustable table stop allows the table to easily return to 90˚ after tilting.

To set the table stop so the table is 90˚ to the blade, do these steps:

1.Make sure the blade is correctly tensioned as described in the Blade Tensioning instructions on

Page 19.

2.DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER!

3.Loosen the two table trunnion knobs.

4.Loosen the hex nut that locks the table stop bolt in place.

5.Raise the upper blade guide assembly and place a 6" machinist’s square or try-square on the table next to the side of the blade as illustrated in Figure 31. Adjust the table stop bolt to raise or lower the table until the table is 90˚ to the blade.

6.Secure the knobs and lock the table stop bolt by tightening the hex nut against the casting. Ensure that the bolt does not turn by holding it with anoth- er wrench while tightening the hex nut.

2.Loosen the pointer screw.

3.Align the tip of the pointer with the 0˚ mark on the table tilt scale.

4.Tighten the pointer screw.
