Lock Levers
If the sliding table does not travel
exactly parallel to the saw blade, the
workpiece could bind and kickback
toward the operator, causing serious
personal injury. You MUST make sure
that the sliding table travels parallel
with the saw blade before beginning
operation to avoid kickback injuries.
13. Mark the right blade edge that is even with the
table, then move the sliding table all the way
toward the table saw front.
14. Use the adjustable square and feeler gauges to
measure the distance between the sliding table
miter gauge slot and the main saw blade at the mark
you made in Step 13. This is distance "A" shown in
Figure 11.
15. Move the sliding table all the way toward the rear
of the table saw, rotate the saw blade so the mark
you made in Step 13 is at location "B", then take the
measurement of "B".
— If the difference is equal to or less than 0.004"
between the "A" and "B" measurements, the sliding
table parallelism is acceptable. Continue with
Step 16.
— If the difference between the "A" and "B"
measurements is greater than 0.004", place
masking tape between the sliding table and saw
table on one end or the other to make the sliding
table parallel with the saw blade.
Repeat Steps 13–15 until the difference between
the "A" and "B" measurements is equal to or less
than 0.004".
16. Insert the T-nuts of the extension table into the
T-slot on the outside edge of the sliding table, then
tighten the lock levers to secure the extension table
to the sliding table, as shown in Figure 12.
Note: The extension table provides additional
workpiece support and should be positioned as
needed during operation.
Tip: Instead of rotating the lock levers to secure the
extension table, you can pull outward on the levers
to disengage them, then use a 4mm hex wrench to
tighten the cap screws in the center of the levers.
