To adjust the sliding fit between the movable table and the base, turn the nut (A) Fig. 14 (located under the saw) clockwise to

movement of the table, or so loose that it affects the accuracy of the saw.

POSITIVE STOPS.”
1. Rotate the movable table so that the blade is 90° to the fence and the positive stop is set for 0°.
2. Place one end of a square (A) Fig. 15 against the front of the fence (B), and the other end against the blade, with the blade
locked in the down position. The fence should be 90° to the blade.
