. Align flats on inside of speader support assembly T12 with flats
on end of pivot rod located on back side of table and securely
fasten to pivot rod using the 1/4-20 x 2" long hex bolt C, 1/4"
external tooth lockwasher
B and flat washer A
(Fig. 17).
2. Remove flanged hex bolt D and remove clamping plate E
(Fig. 18).
3. Position spreader over bumps F, then position clamping plate E
as shown over bumps and securely tighten flanged hex bolt D
(Fig. 18).
4. Loosen hex nut M and back out set screw N three turns with a
flat tip screwdriver. Loosen flanged hex bolts K, L three turns
with the 10 mm open end wrench (Fig. 18b).
5. Raise the saw blade to maximum height and make sure it is
perpendicular to the table.
6.
Place rip fence on table and CAREFULLY move fence J against
the blade so that it is parallel to the blade, and just touches tips
of saw teeth H. The guard and ANTIKICKBACK PAWL of the
Spreader Assembly have to be lifted and rested on top of the rip
fence in order to bring the fence in contact with the blade. Lock
fence J and make sure the blade at front and back is still
touching the fence (Fig. 18b).
7. Using the fence as a guide, align the spreader S with the plane
of the sawblade Q. Since the spreader S is thinner by
approximately three thicknesses of paper on each side than the
width of the blade’s KERF P (Fig. 18c) you must make a
temporary paper “spacing gauge”. Make two folds in a small
piece (6" x 6") of ordinary newspaper making three thicknesses
(Fig. 18a).
8.
Insert folded paper between SPREADER and FENCE. Hold
spreader G by hand firmly against fence J while finger tightening
the hex bolts
K,L then lightly tighten the set screw
N
(Fig. 18b).
9. Release the hand hold of the spreader and fence and recheck
the spreader alignment with the blade. Readjust if necessary.
IMPORTANT: The plane of the Spreader must always be IN
LINE with the plane of the sawblade when blade is
perpendicular to the table or at any bevel angle .
10. After proper alignment adjustment is made, tighten hex nut M
and securely tighten flanged hex bolts
K,L
