Sliding Table Parallel Adjustment - Grizzly G0623X Owner's Manual

Sliding Table Parallel
Adjustment
The table is calibrated at the factory, but can be
adjusted slightly if it is not parallel to the blade.
Besides the tools included with the saw, this
procedure requires a felt tip pen, an adjustable
square, and a set of feeler gauges or a dial indi-
cator.
Note: Using a dial indicator will provide much
more accurate results.
To adjust the sliding table parallel with the
main blade:
1.
DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!
2. Move the blade tilt to 0˚ (blade 90˚ to table),
and raise the main blade up to maximum
height.
3.
Mark the edge of the blade with a felt tip pen.
This will allow you to take your measurements
from the exact same place on the blade.
4.
Using an adjustable square or a dial indica-
tor, measure the distance (A) between the
miter slot and the front of the blade, as shown
in Figure 86.

5. Rotate the blade 180° and slide the table with
the measuring device to position B.

6.
Measure the difference between the two
positions (use the feeler gauge if using the
adjustable square). Make note of the differ-
ence between the two measurements.
— If the gap is the same on both sides or the
difference is 0.004" or less, no adjustments
to the table parallelism need to be made.
— If the difference is greater than 0.004",
then the sliding table parallelism must be
adjusted. Proceed to Step 7.
7.
Loosen the sliding table mounting nuts (see
Figure 87) at both mounting locations.

8. At the side of the table that needs to move,
loosen the hex nut on the parallel adjustment
screw.
9.
Slowly rotate the parallel adjustment screw
(see Figure 87) as necessary to move the
table. If you move the adjustment screw away
from the table, then push the table against
the screw before proceeding.
10. Tighten the hex nut on the parallel adjust-
ment screw to secure it in place, and tighten
the table mounting nuts.
11. Repeat Steps 4–6.
NOTICE
If the sliding table will not move far enough
to become parallel, the blade trunnions
need to be shifted. Call Tech Support.
