Adjustments
For your convenience, the adjustments listed
below have been performed at the factory and no
further setup is required to operate your machine.
However, because of the many variables involved
with shipping, we recommend that you at least
verify the following adjustments to ensure the best
possible results from your new machine.
Factory adjustments that should be verified:
Model G0490W Knife Settings (refer to Page
38).
Table Parallelism (refer to Page 42).
Depth Scale Calibration (refer to Page 47).
Fence Stop Accuracy (refer to Page 48).

Tighten Belt

The final step in the setup process must be done
after approximately 16 hours of operation. During
this first 16 hours, the belt will stretch and seat
into the pulley grooves. After this time, you must
re-tension the belt to avoid slippage and burn out.
Refer to Page 49 when you are ready to perform
this important adjustment.
Note: Pulleys and belt can get hot. This is a nor-
mal condition. Allow them to cool before making
adjustments.
A small amount of black belt dust at the bottom
of the belt housing is normal during the life of the
machine and does not indicate a problem with the
machine or belt.
