Adjusting Blade Parallel To The Slot Miter Gauge - Bosch GTS1031 Operating Instructions Manual

ADJUSTING BLADE PARALLEL TO
THE MITER GAUGE SLOTS
The blade was adjusted parallel to the miter gauge
slots at the factory. In order to insure accurate cuts
and help prevent kickback, this adjustment should
be rechecked. If adjustment is necessary, follow
the steps below.
To prevent personal injury, al-
ways disconnect the plug from
power source before making any adjustments,
1. Turn elevation wheel and raise blade as high as
it will go.
2. Select a point on the body of the saw blade that
is set to the left when viewing blade from the
front of saw, and mark I with a pencil (Fig. 20).
3. Place the base of a combination square against
the edge of the miter gauge slot, and extend the
sliding rule of square so it just touches the
marked point 1 on the body of the saw blade at
the rear of the table.
4. Rotate blade and check the same marked point
1 of the saw blade at the front of the table (Fig. 20).
5. If the front and back measurements, shown in
Figure 20, are not identical, loosen the four
alignment bolts 2, located on the underside of
the table at the front and rear of the saw with
hex wrench supplied with your saw (Fig. 21 &
22). Carefully move the saw blade until the
blade is parallel to the miter gauge slot, and se-
curely tighten all four bolts.
