Aligning the Table to the Blade

• Place a straight edge along the side of the blade
(½" width blade or wider), with very light pressure
(do not deflect the blade). The straightedge should
contact both the front and back of the blade but sit
between the teeth, (fig 38).
• Measure carefully with a fine rule from the
straightedge to the edge of the mitre slot, do this at
the front and back of the table; the distance should
be the same, (fig 39).
