ADjUSTING RIVING KNIFE

1. Raise the saw blade 2 to maximum height
and set the bevel angle to 0°.
2. Remove the barrier guard assembly and
anti-kickback device.
3. Remove the table insert.
4. Place the rip fencece 3 on the right side
and slide it until it touches the tips of the
saw blade 2 - Lock rip fence.
5. Loosen Hex Nut 6 with 10mm open end
wrench (Fig. 28). Slightly loosen clamping
screws 8 (1/4–1/2 turns) using a 5mm hex
wrench 15 provided with table saw
(stored in right side of base). Loosen set
screw 7 using a flat screwdriver (Fig. 28).
6. Fold a small (6" x 6" [152x152 mm]) piece
of standard 20 lb. (75gsm) copy paper
forming two layers (Fig. 27). The paper 5
is used as a "Spacing Gauge".
NOTE: The spacing instructions above are
based on using a standard kerf blade
(.128" [3.25mm] kerf on the Bosch blade
included). If a smaller kerf blade is used,
adjust the paper spacer. For instance, if
the kerf of the replacement blade is near
.100" (2.54mm), use 1 thickness of paper
as a spacer; if the kerf is near .110"
(2.8mm), use 2 thicknesses.
7. Insert folded paper 5 between riving
knife 1 and rip fence 3.
A. Hold riving knife and paper firmly
against rip fence (Fig. 28 and 29).
B. Lightly tighten the clamp screws 8.
C. Remove the paper - Slide rip fence
away from blade.
D. Slowly turn the set screw 7 while
watching the riving knife tilt until it is
in line with the blade.
E. Recheck squareness of riving knife to
table by sliding rip fence against
blade. Readjust if necessary.

A. Lightly tighten hex nut 6 (hold set
screw position with screwdriver while
tightening nut).

Adjusting the Table Insert

The table insert includes four (4) adjustment
screws 3 to set the height (Fig. 30). Place the
insert onto the table. Place a straight edge
(such as the metal ruler from a combination
square) across the table top and insert top –
the surfaces should be at the same level. If
adjustment is necessary, use a small slotted
screwdriver to rotate each set screw.
