Saw Head Tilt
As the blade enters a wide log or cant, the outside of the saw head will drop down slightly.
To compensate for the drop, the saw head is adjusted 1/16" (1.5 mm) higher at the outside.
1. Move the saw carriage so the blade is positioned over a bed rail. Adjust the blade guide arm to 1/2"
(15 mm) from full open. The saw head should still be adjusted so the blade is 14 3/4" (375 mm)
above the bed rails.
See Figure 7-45.
2. Measure from the blade to the bed rail near the outer blade guide assembly. This measurement
should be 1/16" (1.5 mm) higher than the inner measurement.
