LEVELING
THE
FRONT
TABLE
See Figure 24.
If there are any high or low areas on the front table,
they should be removed by adjusting the leveling
screws in the center holes on the front table.
Place the rear table on its edge across the front
table to check for gaps.
Adjust gaps of less than 1/32 in. in the center of
the table by turning the setscrew with a flat blade
screwdriver until the setscrew touches the frame.
Then lightly secure the center pan head screw with
a phillips screwdriver.
For a gap of more than 1/32 in. in the center of the
table, raise the center by turning the setscrew
against the frame. Then lightly secure the center
pan head screw with a phillips screwdriver.
For a gap of more than 1/32 in. on the sides, lower
the center of the table by tightening the center pan
head screw with a phillips screwdriver. Then tighten
the setscrew.

The placement of the tables and fence may need to
be changed for different cuts, depending on the size
of the workpiece and the position of the blade. The
fence should be installed next to the front table for
maximum depth capacity; it should be installed in the
middle for maximum cross cut capacity; and installed
all the way back for maximum rip capacity.
Locate the fence, the spacer table, the rear table,
and two unassembled clamps, which consist of the
following hardware:
2 cup washers
2 clamp brackets
2 square nuts
2 thumbscrews
Place the fence behind the front table, then the
spacer table behind it, and then the rear table
behind it.
Slip a square nut into the slot of each clamp
bracket.
Place a thumbscrew into the end of the clamp
bracket farthest from the slot. Thread it into the
square nut.
Note: If the screw is inserted in the wrong end of the
bracket, the clamp will not work.
Place the clamp bracket into the rectangle holes in
the table support. Hold the cup washer against the
rear table and turn the thumbscrew clockwise until
it snaps into the cup washer.
Tighten the thumbscrews to clamp the table sec-
tions into place.
