Adjusting the blade parallel to the miter
gauge groove (Fig. 38a-38c)
WARNING: The blade must be made parallel to the
miter gauge groove so the wood does not bind
resulting in kickback. Failure to do so could result in
serious personal injury.
Do not loosen any bolts for this adjustment until you have
checked with a ruler and made test cuts to be sure
adjustments are necessary. Once the bolts are loosened,
these items must be reset.
