Squaring Blade to
Table
This adjustment has been made at the factory
and should not need to be adjusted under normal
circumstances. However, if you find the saw is not
cutting square, you may need to adjust the blade.
Only make this adjustment after factors such as
excessive feed rate or the blade guide being set
too far away from the workpiece have been ruled
out.
