5. Use a 12mm wrench to loosen the table
mounting hex bolts (see
Figure 54).
6. Use a 5mm hex wrench to adjust the set

blade front-to-back and side-to-side.
Note: Make small adjustments to the set
screws, then recheck the alignment of the
table with the blade.

Blade Guides/
Support
The inserts in the face of the blade guides and the
blade support are made of tungsten steel.
With use, the front of the blade guide inserts will
wear and it may become difficult to properly adjust
the guides to the blade (refer to Adjusting Blade
Guides on Page 31). If this is the case, swap and
turn over the blade guides so that the inserts are
reversed relative to the blade (see Figure 55).
Figure 55. Blade guide and support orientation.
As the blade is deflected back into the blade
support during operation, a groove will eventu
-
ally wear into the blade support. As this groove
becomes deeper, it can affect the accuracy of the
cut. When this happens, loosen the blade support
cap screw and rotate the blade support, as shown
in Figure 55.
Note: Make sure to re-adjust the blade guides
and support as directed in Adjusting Blade
Guides on Page 31 after making these changes.
