Hi All,
A bit of advice please. Was ripping a bit of timber yesterday and noticed the back of the blade was in contact with the 'save' piece of wood which caused a burn, no flames. Cause = blade out of alignment approx 0.5 mm but I don't have a dial gauge so this is only an estimation. Referring to the manual suggests that I should measure the difference between the alignment of front and back of the blade in relationship to the mitre slot, invert the TS and adjust the trunions. Recheck alignment and repeat if necessary....well, just getting to the trunions seems to be a bit of a complex business. So next stop, google for other solutions and low and behold a couple of posters suggested adjusting the TS table top in its upright position rather than going down the path of inversion and trunion adjustment. Seems very sensible to me. I inspect the TS and noticed three very accessible points where the TS top is fixed to the TS body. It seems to me this would be very a very simple and achievable method of re-aligning the TS blade.
Any advice on experience in either method and potential pitfalls or benefits would be greatly appreciated.
kind regards to all.
