1.
Return the riving knife lock lever to the lock position.
2.
Make sure the riving knife is securely installed and
properly aligned with the blade.
NOTE:
For "non-thru cuts", lower the riving knife to
the "non-thru cut" position using the same procedure.
In this case the "non-thru cut" position line should be
parallel to and level with the table.
INSERT AND LEVEL THROAT
PLATE
Insert the rear tab of the throat plate (G) (the end with
the wear plates) under the surface of the table, and
snap the front end in place (Fig. 12).
Check that the throat plate is properly adjusted to the
table. Front of throat plate should be level or slightly
below the surface of the table and rear of the throat
plate should be level or slightly above the surface of the
table (Fig. 12).
If adjustment is needed, remove the throat plate and
adjust the (4) Phillips set screws
needed. Replace throat plate and recheck. Repeat this
process as needed until the throat plate is level.
It is important that the throat plate is
properly adjusted to the table. This ensures that the
work piece is not caught on the throat plate or the table
when feeding the work piece through the blade during a
cut.
ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS
AND BLADE GUARD
Riving knife (E) must be in the Through Cut position
prior to installation of the anti-kickback pawls (D) and
blade guard (F) (Fig. 14 and 15).
Insert the pawl assembly (D) into the middle slot on
the riving knife (E) as shown in (Fig. 14) while pressing
the spring-loaded pin on the right side of the pawl
assembly.
Once inserted, release the spring-loaded pin so that it
pops back in to place (Fig. 14). Ensure that it is locked
in place.
