Squaring Saw Blade To Table - Craftsman 113.198310 Owner's Manual

(c) Carefully retighten upper two (2) 1/4-20 socket
set screws alternating from left side to right
side so as not to force arm out of adjustment,
(d)
(e)
Recheck blade travel. Adjust arm position as
needed by readjusting upper screws only.
Once arm position is good, tighten lower 1/4-
20 socket set screws. Do not overtighten.
Check elevating handwheel for ease of rota-
tion. If rotating handwheel is difficult, re-
adjust socket set screw tightness as needed.
NOTE: The life of your saw table will be lengthened
considerably if you will cover the front table with a
fitted piece of 1/4 inch plywood. This should be
tacked in place for easy replacement. Use of such a
cover will allow you to do all cutting into the cover,
rather than your table top. This will help prevent
dulling of the saw blade and striking table mounting
hardware. Place tacks out of the path of the saw
blade.

the following adjustments are required.
