IMPORTANT: Before tracking the blade, confirm that
the blade guides and blade support bearings are clear
of the blade.
• After applying tension to the blade, open the upper
wheel guard.
• Rotate the wheel slowly forward by hand and observe
the blade’s movement. It should travel in the center of
the upper tire.
• If the blade creeps toward the front edge, unlock the
blade tracking lock (A) and turn the blade tracking
knob (B) clockwise until the blade consistently tracks
in the middle of the tire.
• If the blade creeps towards the rear of the tire, adjust
the blade tracking knob counterclockwise.
• Lock the blade tracking lock and close and lock the
upper wheel guard.
See Figure 10.
Disconnect the machine from the
power source!
• Fit the throat plate (A) in the throat of the table so that
the tab on the throat plate fits into the notch in table.
• Check to ensure the front of the throat plate is not
higher than the table surface. To adjust the height of
the throat plate, rotate the two set screws (B) either
up or down
SQUARE TABLE TO BLADE
FIGURE 11
Disconnect the machine from the
power source!
Place a carpenters square (A) against the front and
back side of the blade and check the alignment of the
table. If the table is out of square, refer to Figure 11 and
proceed as follows:
• Raise the upper blade guide assembly by loosening
the lock knob (B).
• Loosen the flange nut (C) on the lower trunnion using
a 12MM open end wrench and adjust the set screw
until the table is square with the blade from the front
and back.
• Tighten the flange nut and use the square to confirm
proper position of the table
• Check the pointer on the tilt scale, located on the
lower trunnion, and reset if necessary to read 0°.
