(b) Using a 1/4-inch hex-L wrench, slightly
loosen the four socket-head screws (figure
48L
(c) Tilt the motor until the saw blade is square
with the table top as shown in figure 47.
Then, while holding the square firmly
against the saw blade and table top, apply
moderate force against the lower part of the
saw blade with your thumb, until approxi-
mately 1/32 inch clearance exists between
the square and the lower edge of the blade.
This is to compensate for the possible slight
shifting of the motor while the socket-head
screws are being tightened.
(d) Tighten the four socket-head screws and
replace the bevel lock knob (figure 48). It
may be necessary to perform several trial
operations before the saw blade remains
perfectly square with the table, after tighten
ing the four screws.
(4) After completing this adjustment, set the bevel
indicator to zero.
k, Adjusting Carriage Bearings (Figs. 49 through 52).
To test for looseness between the carriage bearings
and the tracks on the radial arm, lock the yoke-clamp
handle (figure 49), grasp the motor and carriage
assembly firmly with both hands, and apply a firm
rocking motion. If looseness exists, perform the
following steps :
NOTE:
Adjustment is made on lefr-hand side, onlyo
(1) Remove left-hand carriage cover (figure 50).
(2) Loosen the two nuts (figure 51) just enough to
permit the two eccentric screws to turn. (See
figure 52.)
(3) Rotate one of the eccentric screws a partial turn
(left or right) as required to take up looseness,
Hold the head of the eccentric screw (figure 51)
m the position established by this method and
t_ghten the nut. Repeat this procedure for the
other eccentric screw. Correct adjustment exists
.vhen there is no play between the carriage and
the radial arm tracks, but the carriage moves
',0ack and forth freely.
(4) Reinstall the left-hand carriage cover (figure 50).
