Adjusting Lower Blade Guide and Blade

Support Bearing

1. Disconnect machine from power source.

2. Blade must already be tensioned and tracking

properly.

3. Loosen thumb screw (A, Fig. 29) and move

guide block by turning knob (B, Fig. 29) so

that the front of the guide wheels (C, Fig. 29)

are just behind the gullet (curved area at base

of tooth) of the blade.

4. Tighten thumb screw (A, Fig. 29).

5. Loosen thumb screw (D, Fig. 29) and turn

knob (E, Fig. 29) to move the support bearing

(F, Fig. 29) in or out until the bearing is

approximately 1/64" behind the blade. A

simple way to set this distance is to place a

piece of paper or a dollar bill between the

support bearing and the blade.

6. Tighten thumb screw (D, Fig. 29).

7. Loosen the cap screw (G, Fig. 27) and turn

the screw on each guide wheel (H, Fig. 27) to

move the guide wheels appoximately 1/64”

from the blade. Tighten cap screw (G, Fig.

27) when finished.

Miter Gauge

A miter gauge is provided for angle cutting. Slide

the miter gauge into the T-slot from the front edge

of the table (Fig. 30). To use the miter gauge,

loosen the handle and rotate the gauge body until

the desired angle on the scale lines up with the

pointer. Tighten handle.

The miter gauge, when not in use, can be placed

into the hooks on the stand. See Fig. 31. Loosen

the miter gauge handle, and slide the miter gauge

into the top hook. Pivot the miter gauge bar into the

lower hook, then tighten the miter gauge handle to

secure the miter gauge to the stand.
