ADJUSTING SLIDING FIT BETWEEN
TRUNNION AND BEVEL BRACKET
After a long period of time it may become necessary to
adjust the sliding fit between the trunnion (A) Fig. 27,
and the bevel bracket (B) by tightening adjusting nut
(C). NOTE: This adjustment must be made with the
bevel lock handle (D) loose. Correct adjustment is when
a good snug sliding fit is obt ained between these two
parts. This adjustment should not be too tight that it
restrict s the sliding movement or too loose that it af fects
the accuracy of the saw cut.

lock handle.
3. Using a square (A) Fig. 28, place one end of the
square on the table and the other end against the blade,
as shown. Check to see if the blade is at 90 degrees to
the table.
