5. Using a 3/16Allen wrench (J) Fig. 64, turn adjustment
screws (K) Figs. 61 and 64 to remove all “play.” NOTE: DO
NOT OVERTIGHTEN ADJUSTMENT SCREWS (K).

SCREWS (K) MORE THAN 1/2 TURN. THE CUTTING-
HEAD MAY FALL FROM THE TRACK ARM.
6. Tighten two hex nuts which were loosened in STEP 4,
and check cutting-head travel for any “play” and to
ensure it moves freely and smoothly.
7. When adjustments are complete, replace plastic
plug which was removed in STEP 2.
ADJUSTING TENSION ON
ELEVATING COLUMN
Elevating column tension is preset at the factory. It can
be adjusted to remove any “play” which may develop
after extended use. Adjustments can be made as
follows:
1. DISCONNECT TOOL FROM POWER SOURCE.
2. Loosen hex nuts (A) Fig. 65, and gib adjustment
screws (C).
3. Adjustment to column base (B) Fig. 65, is made by
loosening hex nuts (D) and turning screws (E) until column
base wraps around column securely and can be raised or
lowered without binding. Then tighten hex nuts (D) against
column base.
4. After all movement between column base (B) Fig.
65, and elevating column (F) is removed, tighten gib and
adjustment screws (C) against gib (H) until all side-to-
side play is removed. Then tighten hex nuts (A) against
column base. NOTE: After adjusting column tension,
refer to “ADJUSTING SAW BLADE TRAVEL SQUARE
WITH FENCE” to determine if saw blade travel was
affected.
