Compound Gib: The gib on the compound
has two set screws to maintain tension on the
slide (see Figure 75). To adjust these to the
proper tension, loosen the cap screw positioned
between them and turn the hand crank while
adjusting each screw. Tighten until extra effort
is required to move the slide then back off the
set screw a little. When needed, the slide can be
locked in place using the cap screw.

Apron Gib: There are 2 set screws that tension
the saddle gib (see Figure 76). Before making
adjustments to the saddle gib, ensure that the
front lock lever is loose by turning it counterclock-
wise. It is important that the set screws are tight-
ened evenly. A slight drag should be detected
while turning the hand crank on the apron.
