Adjusting Bent Spreader/Riving Knife

1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!

2. Bend the spreader or riving knife by hand while

installed, then follow Steps 1–4 in Checking

Alignment on Page 8 to determine if it is parallel

with the blade and inside the "Alignment Zone."

— If this does not work, remove it to straighten.

— If you cannot straighten it properly, replace it.

To adjust the spreader/riving knife position, do these

steps:

1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!

2. Remove the table insert.

3. Loosen the two button head cap screws on the

mounting block, then adjust the set screws on the

block to move it in the necessary direction (see

"Mounting Block" inset in Figure 15).

4. Tighten the lock (see Figure 16), then re-install

the table insert.

5. Follow Checking Alignment, Steps 1–4, on Page 8.

— If the spreader/riving knife is in the alignment

zone, no additional steps are necessary.

— If the spreader/riving knife is still not in the align-

ment zone, continue adjusting the set screws on

the mounting block as necessary to correctly posi-

tion the spreader/riving knife.

6. Tighten the two button head cap screws on the

mounting block to secure the spreader/riving knife

adjustment.

Adjusting Alignment

The spreader/riving knife mounts to a block that can be

repositioned to correctly align the spreader/riving knife

to the blade. The mounting block adjusts by turning the

set screws in each corner of the block. Figure 15 shows

the set screws associated with controlling the mounting

block position. Before proceeding, verify blade-miter slot

parallelism, as specified in your original manual.
