ADJUSTMENTS

Rail Adjustment

NOTE: The saw has been calibrated by the manufacturer.
The following adjustment steps are to be used only when
necessary.
1. Turn off the saw. Remove the two end covers (1) at the
ends of the rails from the end of the rails. Remove the
two top covers () of the rails by sliding them out from
the top of the rails (Fig. 39).
. Loosen the four screws (3) inside each rail so that the
rails may be adjusted.
3. Use a slide caliper or straight ruler to measure the dis-
tance between the two rails at one end of the rails. Make
sure that the distance is 30mm, and then slightly tight-
en the screw at that end of each rail. Follow the same
procedure at the other ends of the rails to adjust the
distance between the rails to 30mm, and slightly tight-
en the screw at that end of each rail (Fig. 40).
4. Place a 90° framing square on the working table against
working-table fence (Fig. 41).
5. Push the working table with the square along the saw
blade to determine if the gap between the framing
square and blade is consistent along the length of the
stroke.
6. If the gap is consistent, firmly secure all eight fixing
screws (3). If not, repeat the adjustment steps above
until the gap is consistent.
