Making Adjustments to Your Saw
To adjust the height of the wood stop, loosen
the two bolts that attach the blade guard dust
port to the spreader (see Fig. 83). To better
access the bolts, pivot the left large anti-
kickback pawl up and guide it into the catch on
the side of the dust port as shown in Fig. 34.
Use a 4 mm hex key to loosen the bolts.
Rotate the blade guard dust port until the wood
stop is 7-10 mm above the table (see Fig. 84).
Once set, tighten the two bolts on the blade
guard dust port, but do not overtighten.

Adjusting the Height of the Limit Rod
When set correctly, the wood stop at the end of the limit rod will prevent a work piece that is taller than the top
of the blade from entering the blade guard and engaging the blade. The height of the wood stop should be
adjusted whenever the clamp is adjusted.
To check the height of the limit rod wood stop, first install the blade guard in the saw. Next, lower the blade until
the top of the blade is flush with the table. Now, measure the distance between the bottom of the wood stop and
the table. The bottom of the wood stop should be 7-10 mm above the table when the top of the blade is flush
with the table (see Fig. 82). If the wood stop is too far above the table
or too low, you will need to adjust the height of the wood stop.
