Adjusting Extension Tab Parallelism - Delta 36-6013 Manual

ADJUSTING EXTENSION TAB
PARALLELISM
1.
Using a precision measuring tool, measure the distance
from the inside face of the Blade to the edge of the Miter
Slot. See Figure 35.
2.
Using the correct scale, slide the fence so that the indicator
reads the value that was recorded in Step 1 and lock the
Rails in place.
3.
If the two values agree, there is no need for adjustment.
If the values are not the same, you will need to re-adjust
your front and rear extension tabs.
4.
Using supplied 4mm Allen wrench in a counter-clockwise
motion, loosen both front and rear extension tabs. See
Figure 36.
5.
Move the extension tabs (with the fence attached) so that
the inside face of the fence is flush with the edge of the
miter slot (that was measured in Step 1). See Figure 37.
6.
Once the Fence is the correct distance from the blade and
flush with the miter slot edge from front to back, you may
use the 5/32 inch Allen Key to re-tighten the extension
tabs.
7.
To check this procedure, with the fence on the extension
tabs, slide the fence to a couple of different distances from
the blade and check to ensure that the scale readings are
accurate.
