Table Parallelism
The table has been adjusted at the factory and
should require no further attention. However, we
recommend verifying that it is parallel with the
machine frame.
The four corners of the table can be independent-
ly adjusted up or down to achieve parallelism with
the frame by adjusting the elevation screw flanges
Figure 54 or repositioning the pertinent table ele-
vation screw sprocket on the chain (Figure 55).

Adjusting the table parallelism can take a fair
amount of patience.
DO NOT adjust the table
unless you are having trouble sanding your
workpiece to a uniform thickness and have
eliminated all other possible causes.
If a table adjustment is needed, take precise notes
on the positioning of the table elevation screws by
marking them. This will allow the original setting to
be restored if needed.

Table Parallelism Inspection
1.
Open the upper left and right access doors,
and use a vacuum cleaner and a shop rag to
clean off the table and frame at each of the
four corners so sawdust will not interfere with
measurements in the following steps.
2.
Raise the metal edge of the table so it is
nearly level with the interior surface of the
frame, then place a small straightedge at the
front right corner of the frame so it overlaps
the table edge, as shown in Figures 56–57.
Figure 56. Straightedge flush with front right
corner of frame and table.
