Setting Upper Blade
Guide Height
When cutting, the blade guides must always be
positioned so they just clear (no more than
1
⁄4") the
workpiece. The guide post, shown in
Figure 37,
allows the upper blade guide assembly to be
quickly adjusted for height.
To adjust height of upper blade guides:
1.
DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2.
Loosen guide post lock knob.
3. Using guide post adjustment knob, position
guide post so that blade guide assembly just
clears (no more than
1
⁄4") workpiece.
4.
Tighten guide post lock knob to secure
setting.
Tilting Table
The table can be tilted from 0°–45° right to make
beveled cuts. A table tilt scale with indicator is
provided on the trunnion, and a positive stop is
provided for quickly returning the table back to 0°
from a right-tilt setting (see
Figure 38).
Note: The tilt scale on the trunnion serves as a
guide only. For more accurate results, use a bevel
gauge or protractor to set the desired table tilt rela-
tive to the blade.
1.

2.

3.
