and extend the sliding rule of the square so
it just touches the marked point on the saw
blade at the rear of the table, avoiding the
blade teeth.
󰀲
Rotate the blade and check the same
marked point of the saw blade at the front

tighten the bolts. If the parallelism is still off,
loosen all four bolts (K-1) and repeat (see
figure K2).

jam nuts (L-7) which are on the underside of
the saw. Tighten the hex rod (L-6) until the
spring on the locking system is compressed,
(not fully compressed) creating the desired
tension on the rail locking lever. Retighten the
jam nuts against the hex rod.
