CONTROLS
The table crank (Figure 2) when turned will raise or lower the table in
relation to the saw blade, thus regulating the depth of cut as indicated
on the depth of cut scale.
The table clamp screw locks the table in position, and therefore
should be loose during adjustment of table height. The table lock
handle, with its hexagon recess is designed for use as a wrench on the
table lock nut No. 33422 to clamp the table in position at any angle
from 0' to 45' as shown on the table tilt protractor. The handle may be
slid off the nut toward the saw and will hang in a neutral position when
not in use.
NOTE: The table must be raised at least 1/4 inch from the lowest setting
before tilting.
The rip fence clamp knob will clamp the fence to the front fence bar
and will square the fence with the table if tightened while the lock
knob is loose. The lock knob when tightened will lock the far end of
the fence in place.
The face of the miter gage may be set at any desired angle from 30' to
90' in either direction by loosening the miter protractor lock knob and
turning the protractor to the desired angle as shown on the calibrated
scale.
ADJUSTMENTS
If a square cut is not produced with a 0 setting of the table tilt protractor, lower
the table to the full depth of cut position and check the squareness of the blade
and table with a square. Adjustment may be made with the table leveling
screw shown in Figure 3. Following this adjustment, the table protractor
pointer should be reset at the 0 mark. This may be accomplished by backing
out the pointer screw X512 until the pointer can be turned to the desired
position. Care should be exercised so that the pointer does not move when the
screw is tightened. Raise the table 1/4 inch and tilt it 45' as indicated on the
table tilt protractor. Adjust the 45'
stop screw shown in Figure 3 so that the table is supported when tilted 45'. The
jam nut on the stop screw must be retightened after adjustment.
The miter gage may be checked with an accurate try-square and the pointer
reset at 90' if adjustment
necessary after setting the protractor square with
is
the bar No. 33240.
The rip fence must be parallel with the saw blade to produce straight cuts and
avoid binding. After the alignment of the miter slots and saw blade have been
checked, as previously described, slide the edge of the fence
to the edge of the miter slot and tighten the clamp knob and lock knob in
order mentioned. If the fence is not parallel with the miter slot, loosen the lock
knob and the two screws shown on either side of the clamp knob in Figure 3.
With the lock knob and the two screws loose, the fence may be pivoted until it
is parallel with the miter slot. Tighten the lock knob. After the fence is set as
described above, tighten the two screws securely to maintain the adjustment
just completed.
