W1761/W1762 12" Table Saw with Riving Knife

SERVICE

8. Tilt the blade to 45° and repeat Steps 2-6. If the

blade is still parallel to the miter slot, continue on

to the Blade Alignment procedure. Otherwise, con

tinue with the next step.

9. If the blade was parallel to the miter slot at 90° but

not at 45°, the table will need to be shimmed with

metal shim stock. The shims are placed under the

table over each of the three table mounting bolts.

10. Refer to Figures 72 and 73 for shim placement. If

the distance of A is shorter than B, shim(s) will need

to be placed under corners #1 and #2. If the distance

of B is shorter than A, shim(s) will need to be placed

under corner #3. Very thin shim stock works well.

11. Tighten down one bolt a small amount and then

move on to each of the others, tightening each down

the same amount. Continue to rotate through the

bolts, tightening them a little each time until they

are all secure.

12. Now recheck the blade to miter slot at 90° and 45°

by repeating Steps 2-6. If the distance of A and B

are equal, continue to the Blade Alignment proce

dure. If the distances are still off, repeat Steps 10-

13.

13. Once you feel you have the miter slot adjusted to

the blade, recheck all measurements and be sure

the table mounting bolts are secure. Also, if you

ever remove the table in the future, be sure to make

note of shim placements and reassemble exactly how

it came apart.

Blade Alignment

If the blade contacts the table insert when raised or tilt-

ed, the blade must be aligned by moving the table.

To adjust the blade by moving the table, do these

steps:

1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2. Loosen the three table mounting bolts (Page 51) with

a 17mm wrench and adjust the table until the blade

does not contact the insert. Tighten all the mounting

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 51). Adjust as

necessary until the blade does not touch the insert.
