BLADE ELEVATION
When the evelation handwheel is turned CLOCKWISE, until
it stops, the blade must not be more than two (2) inches
above the table. If the blade extends more than (2) inches,
the motor could interfere with the underside of the table
causing misalignment.
With the blade extending two (2) inches above the table,
the STOP COLLAR and SPACER must be against the

more than two inches, loosen two screws in STOP
