To use wood blocks:
1. Build wood blocks by cutting a straight 6-foot-
long 2x4 in half.
Note: Having the wood blocks at an even
height is critical to the accuracy of your
overall adjustments. For best results, make
the 2x4 square with a jointer and table saw
before cutting it in half.
2. G0890 Only: Make sure knives are set to
correct height (refer to Adjusting/Replacing
Knives on Page 27 for detailed instructions).
3. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
4. Place wood blocks along sides of table, as
illustrated in Figure 45.
