6. Loosen (4) table mounting bolts securing table top
to base (see Figure.105), and lightly tap table in
direction needed to square table to blade.
7.. Repeat Steps.2–6 until blade and miter slot are
parallel, then retighten table mounting bolts.
8.. Tilt blade to 45° and recheck miter slot-to-blade
parallelism.
— If blade is still parallel with miter slot, no additional
adjustments need to be made.
— If blade was parallel with miter slot at 0° but not
at 45°, one end of table will need to be shimmed
higher with metal shim stock. Continue to Step.9.
9. Loosen (4) table mounting bolts from Step.6.
10. Refer to Figures. 106–107 for shim placement. If
distance A is shorter than B, shim(s) will need to be
placed under corners #1 and #2. If the distance of B is
shorter than A, shim(s) will need to be placed under
corner #3. Very thin shim stock works well.
11. Tighten one table mounting bolt a small amount and
then repeat with the others, tightening each down
the same amount. Continue this process with all the
bolts, tightening them a little each time until they
are all secure.
12. Now recheck blade to miter slot at 0° and 45° by
repeating Steps.2-5.
— If distance of A and B are equal, continue to Step.
13.
— If distances are still off, repeat Steps 9–12.
13. Once miter slot is adjusted to blade, recheck all
measurements and be sure table mounting bolts are
secure.
Note:.If you remove the table in the future, note the
shim placements and reassemble them exactly how
they came apart.
