Table Tilt Scale Calibration
To calibrate the table tilt scale:
Make sure the table is at 90
and the blade tensioning and tracking is
properly set. (See Page 12 & page 14 for
details)
Disconnect the machine from the power
source and loosen the pointer screw shown
in figure-24. Align the tip of the pointer
with the O" mark on the tilt scale and

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
table trunnion bolts under the table shown
in figure-25.
Figure-25 Table trunnion bolts
Place a straightedge on the table so that the
straightedge touches the blade and is
parallel to it as shown in figure-25. Make
sure the straight-edge 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
