The riving knife clamping base is adjusted by the
manufacturer and no further adjustment of blade
guard and riving knife assembly should be
necessary. However, proper alignment is very
important. Before operating table saw, read sect.
8.7, Riving knife alignment, to verify and follow
adjustment procedure if necessary.
6.11 Dust Port
Use of a dust collection system (not provided) is
strongly recommended during table saw operation.
It will help keep the shop clean, as well as prevent
potential health issues due to dust inhalation.
Make sure internal hose is pushed into external dust
port (Figure 6-14). Attach hose from your dust
collection system to the 4-inch dust port at base of
saw, and secure with wire hose clamp (not
provided).
