and Positive
Stop
In this procedure you will adjust the work support
plate parallel and
1
⁄8" away from the edge of the
saw blade. Then set the positive stop so the work
support plate can be quickly returned to this posi
-
tion after cutting various thicknesses.
Blade Clearance
Adjustment
MAKE SURE the blade clearance is adjusted
correctly! DO NOT adjust the work support
plate any closer than
1
⁄8" from the saw blade.
If the blade contacts the work support plate,
severe injury may occur. If the blade must
be closer than
1
⁄8" for special circumstances,
fasten a block of wood through the holes in
the work support plate to prevent the saw
blade from contacting the jig.
