Table-to-Blade.Squaring
The table can be adjusted 45° to the right or 5° to the
left. There is a positive stop bolt (see Figure.16) that
mounts to the body, under the table. When adjusted
correctly, this allows you to bring your table back to 0°
after cutting at an angle. There is also an adjustable
pointer mounted to the trunnion base. This works with
the table trunnion gauge to show you the angle of table
tilt.
