Even'
though
the
finest

precision
workmanship
have been incorporated
into
your
Craftsman
saw, it is reasonable
to expect
some wear after
long periods
of use. Sooner
or later,
the metal
to metal
parts must wear
and will
need
take-up.
Every
metal

up. In this way,
the machine
can always
be kept accurate
and just as important,
rigid.
