  • The straight edge should move about 3/16" to 1/4". The outfeed table should remain 2 thousandths lower than the highest swings of the blade. Please let me know if you have any further questions; I am happy to help.

  • you never say how much you want it to move your straight edge! lol this is the key question for me. if you have both tables level...set at zero, the blade should still be over? (so there is no setting you could pass wood without cutting anything???) but at that point how far should the blade carry your straight edge? thank you!
