To adjust the table gibs:
1. Using an adjustable wrench, loosen the
infeed table gib nut under the rear of the table
(Figure 73).
2. Using an 8mm hex wrench, tighten the gib
setscrew a small amount, then check the
table by moving it up and down. Adjust the
set screw as needed until the friction of the
table movement is balanced between mini
-
mal play and ease of movement, then secure
the lock nut.
Note: Tighter gibs reduce play but make it
harder to adjust the tables.
