Blade Drift Compensation:
Blade drift is a frequent problem on rip cuts and during
resawing.
Blade drift may occur when the fence is being used, the
blade begins to wander off the cutting line (Fig. 19).
Blade drift can be caused by a number of factors.
- The saw blade follows the grain
- The saw blade is dull.
- Blade guides not adjusted correctly.
- Blade tension unsufficient.
- Blade-teeth have asymmetric"set"

For your own safety always set the upper saw guide as
close to the workpiece as possible.
