3.4 Install the mast
Prepare the mast carriages
The sawhead carriages come mostly assembled from the
factory.
1. Place 4 carriage bolts from the hardware kit through
the inner side of the carriage.
2. Place washers and nuts loosely on the M10-1.5x70
carriage bolts.
See FIG. 1-8.
NOTE: Do not tighten them at
this time.
3. Set the carriage on the rails.
NOTE: There is a bearing
for each side of the rail, and
the carriage rests on the
vertical bearing. The side
bearings are adjustable (slot-
ted holes), and must be
adjusted at this time. The ver-
tical bearings are not adjust-
able.
See FIG. 3-9.
4. Adjust the bearings now so that the carriage glides
smoothly back and forth with little effort.
5. Repeat on the opposite side of the saw bed.
6. Remove the carriages from the rails for further installation with the mast.
