Adjusting Main
conveyor Table
the conveyor table can be adjusted left-to-right
and front-to-back to make the table parallel to
the blade in both directions. this is an involved
procedure that requires you to cut up a piece of
test stock and make many repeat adjustments.
Because of the complexity of this procedure, we
will first give instructions on checking the table,
so that you can be sure you need to perform the
adjustment.
Before attempting these procedures, you need to
have a perfectly squared piece of stock that is as
wide as possible and is at least two feet long. the
wider the stock, the more accurate your proce-
dure will be (we recommend using the maximum
width that the resaw will allow). also, you need to
make sure that your blade is in good condition,
tracked, and tensioned properly, and the blade
guides are properly adjusted.

To check the main conveyor table alignment:
1. Cut a
" slice off of your squared-up test

stock.
2. use a caliper to measure the thickness
of the cut piece in even locations along
the edges of the stock. as you take these
measurements, write them directly on the
stock, near the location where you took the
measurement (see figure 59). note—DO
NOT measure the first and last six inches of
the board, because the board will only have
been under one pressure roller during that
part of the cut.

3.
study the written test measurements.
—if the measurements are more than 0.030"
different from one side to the other, adjust
the conveyor table.
To adjust the conveyor table left to right:
1.
Disconnect the resaw from the power
source!

2.
use your test board to determine which
direction the conveyor table needs to be
moved. For example, if the right side of the
board was thicker than the left side—you
will need to move either the right side of the
conveyor up or move the left side of the con-
veyor down.
3.
loosen all six of the conveyor mounting bolts
(see figure 60).
