Blade Alignment

If the blade contacts the table insert when raised
or tilted, the blade must be aligned by moving the
table.

Tools Needed

Qty

Wrench 14mm ................................................... 1

To adjust the blade by moving the table:

1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2. Loosen the three table mounting bolts (Page

52) and adjust the table until the blade does
not contact the insert. Tighten all the mount-
ing bolts.

3. Make sure the blade does not contact the

table insert when raised or tilted. Recheck
parallelism of the blade to the miter slot (see

Page 52). Adjust as necessary until the blade
does not touch the insert.

Adjusting Fence

The rip fence included with your Model G0605X/
G0606X Table Saw is designed to provide excel-
lent ripping accuracy when properly adjusted.
There are four main adjustments to concern your-
self with: square, height, parallelism, and clamp-
ing pressure. Keep in mind that these adjustments
are interconnected and some trial-and-error may
be needed to achieve satisfactory results.

Machinist Square ............................................... 1

Square and Height

Adjust the the nylon screws (

Figure 80) on top of

the fence bracket with a 6mm hex wrench to set
the fence square with the blade and set the fence
height above the table.

Place a machinist’s square on the table against
the side of the fence. If the square does not
remain flush against both the fence and the table,
adjust the nylon screws until the fence and table
are square.

If the bottom surface of the fence is more than

1

/

16

" above the table at the front or back, adjust the

fence height using the nylon screws and the rear
rail foot (

Figure 80).

Clamping Pressure and Parallelism

The fence clamping mechanism can be adjusted
simultaneously to set the right amount of clamping
pressure to hold your fence securely, and ensure
the fence is parallel to the miter slot.

Remove the fence and, using a 4mm hex wrench,
adjust the set screws shown in

Figure 81 equally

on the rear side of the front bracket.
