BACKLASH ADJUSTMENTS

FOR BLADE RAISING AND

BLADE TILTING

MECHANISMS

If any play is detected in the blade raising or blade tilting

mechanisms, the following adjustments should be made.

DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER

SOURCE.

1. NOTE: The machine has been turned upside down

and the blade removed for clarity and safety.

2. Adjusting blade raising mechanism - Loosen

locknut (A) Fig. 61, and turn eccentric sleeve (B) until all

play is removed in mechanism, then tighten locknut (A).

locknut (C) Fig. 61, and turn eccentric (D) until all play is

RIP FENCE OPERATION

AND ADJUSTMENTS

The rip fence can be used on either side of the saw

blade. The most common location is on the right side

and is guided by means of guide rails which are fastened

to the front and rear of the table.

1. To move the rip fence, raise the lock handle (A) Fig.

62, as far as it will go and move the fence to the desired

position on the table. When the lock handle (A) Fig. 62,

is pushed down, clamping action on the rip fence (B)

should be adequate. However, if the clamping action is

too loose or too tight, an adjustment can be made by

equally tightening or loosening two screws (C) as

necessary. NOTE: It will be necessary to remove the

cursor (D) Fig. 64, to make this adjustment

THE BLADE FLANGE IS SET PARALLEL

TO THE MITER GAGE SLOT AT THE FACTORY AND

THE RIP FENCE MUST BE PROPERLY ALIGNED TO

THE MITER GAGE SLOT IN ORDER TO PREVENT

“KICKBACK” WHEN RIPPING.

2. Position the fence (B) Fig. 62, along one edge of the

miter gage slot (F) as shown and lock the fence in that

position. The edge of the fence (B) Fig. 62, should be

parallel to the miter gage slot (F). If an adjustment is

necessary, proceed as follows:

3. Tighten or loosen either of two screws (C) Fig. 62, as

necessary, until the fence (B) is parallel to the miter gage

slot. NOTE: It will be necessary to remove the cursor (D)

Fig. 64, to make this adjustment. Readjust the clamping

action on the fence; if necessary, refer to STEP 1. Re-

assemble the cursor.

THE RIP FENCE MUST BE

PERPENDICULAR TO AND LEVEL WITH THE SAW

TABLE.

4. Using a square (G) Fig. 63, check to see if the rip

fence (B) is perpendicular to the saw table and that the

rip fence body is level with the saw table. If an

adjustment is necessary, tighten or loosen either of two

screws (K), until the fence is perpendicular and level with

the saw table.
