Table Alignment
To make accurate cuts with your band saw,
the table should be aligned properly with
the blade.
To align the table:
Make sure the blade tension and tracking is
done correctly. Disconnect the machine
from the power source and loosen the two
knobs under the table. Place a straightedge
on the table so that the straightedge
touches the blade and is parallel to it as
shown in figure-26.
straightedge touches only the flat part of the
blade, not the teeth.
Now, use a ruler to measure the distance
between the miter slot and the straight edge
on both sides on the table R & L. See
figure-26
Adjust the table until the distance on both
sides of the table is equal and tighten the
knobs.
