An adjustable table stop allows the table to easily return

to 90˚ after tilting.

To set the table stop so the table is 90˚ to the blade,

do these steps:

1. Make sure the blade is correctly tensioned as

described in the

Blade Tensioning instructions on

Page 19.

2. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER!

3. Loosen the two table trunnion knobs.

4. Loosen the hex nut that locks the table stop bolt in

place.

5. Raise the upper blade guide assembly and place a 6"

machinist’s square or try-square on the table next

to the side of the blade as illustrated in

Figure 31.

Adjust the table stop bolt to raise or lower the table

until the table is 90˚ to the blade.

6. Secure the knobs and lock the table stop bolt by

tightening the hex nut against the casting. Ensure

that the bolt does not turn by holding it with anoth-

er wrench while tightening the hex nut.

calibrated in order for the scale reading to be accurate.

To calibrate the pointer on the table tilt scale, do

these steps:

and that the table is 90˚ to the blade (this proce-

dure should be already completed with the

Table

Stop Adjustment instructions).

2. Loosen the pointer screw.

3. Align the tip of the pointer with the 0˚ mark on the

table tilt scale.

4. Tighten the pointer screw.
