Adjusting Table Insert; Adjustments - Bosch GTS1031 Operating Instructions Manual

NOTE: The spacing instructions are based on
using the standard kerf blade supplied with your
GTS1031. If a smaller or larger kerf blade is used,
adjust the spacer. For instance, if the kerf of the
replacement blade is larger, use 6 or more thick-
nesses of paper and if it is smaller, use 4 or less
thicknesses. Depending on the type of paper
used as a spacer, you may need to modify the
number of folds for proper alignment.
7. Insert folded paper 5 between Riving Knife I and
Fence 3.
