ASSEMBLY / ADJUSTMENTS

INSTALLING THE 4” DUST PORT

The 4” dust port under the table is installed on the frame

above the lower door knob. Locate four 4mm pan head

screws and four 4mm flat washers from the hardware

pack. Using a Phillips-head screw driver install the

screws through the dust port flange into pre-threaded

holes in the frame.

See Figure 5.

INSTALLING THE LOWER DOOR BLADE GUARD

Hardware for the lower door blade guard has been pre-

installed at the factory. Locate the plastic wing nut part

#16

(refer to parts explosion on page 25 of this manual)

and washer on the lower door and remove. Place the

lower door blade guard part #18 over the threaded hole

in the door in alignment with the long adjustment slot.

Install the plastic wing nut and washer through the long

adjustment slot and thread into the door. See Figure 6.

Adjust as needed to cover the blade under the table.

SETTING THE TABLE SQUARE TO SAW BLADE

The table may be set at 90° to the saw blade sides

by adjusting the table stop screw (A-Fig.7) under the

table. The table stop screw rests on the top of the

quick release adjustment stop (B-Fig.7). First loosen

the locking nut (C-Fig.7) and set a square between

the blade and the work table. Adjust the table stop

screw (A-Fig.7) until the table and blade are set at 90°.

Retighten the locking nut (A-Fig.7) making sure that the

setting is maintained.

The table may also be set at 90° to the back of the saw

blade by adjusting the table mounting bolts. One of

the four table mounting bolts shown in Figure 7. With

the Offset Wrench provided slightly loosen part #160

mounting bolt (refer to parts explosion on page 28 of

this manual).

Using the 6mm “L” wrench provided, turn the trunnion

micro adjusting screw #159, as needed, to achieve

desired setting. Turning the screw clockwise will

raise the trunnion; counterclockwise will lower. Check

table for 90° and tighten part #154 to the top of the

upper trunnion to retain the desired setting. Finish by

tightening part #160.
