Centering the Table
a. Loosen the four bolts mounting the table to the upper
trunnion. (A-Fig. 4)

b. Move table sideways as required, until saw blade runs
through the center of table insert.

loosen the bolts holding the lower table trunnion and move
the table sideways to place the table in the center. (B-Fig. 4)

d. Re-tighten trunnion bolts, recheck blade position.

Setting the Table Square with the Saw Blade
Loosen the wing nut and place a suitably sized square
against the saw blade. If table requires adjustment, proceed
as follows:

a. Using a 10mm wrench, release lock nut on the table stop.

b. Place wrench on bolt and adjust until table is set square
to blade.

c. Tighten M10 lock nut and recheck blade and table for
squareness.

degrees on side of trunnion. Loosen then screw securing
pointer and reset if necessary to give zero degree reading
