ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING:
Before performing any adjustment, make sure the
tool is unplugged from the power supply and the
switch is in the OFF position. Failure to heed this
warning could result in serious personal injury.
The saw has been adjusted at the factory for making very
accurate cuts. However, some of the components might
have been jarred out of alignment during shipping. Also,
over a period of time, readjustment will probably become
necessary due to normal wear.
Do not start any adjustments until you have checked with
a square and made test cuts to be sure adjustments are
needed.

TABLE
See Figure 35.
Do not loosen any screws for this adjustment until you have
checked with a square and made test cuts to be sure adjust-
ments are necessary. Once the screws are loosened, these

wheel.

off of the table rails.
