Remove the red cover from the front adjustment mechanism. We will use this mechanism to rotate the rods together or individually to adjust height and tilt respectively. | Remove the red cover from the front adjustment mechanism.

+ | Two allan keys (6-7mm?) hold the arms of the mechanism to the rods. We will use these to rotate the rods. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 1. Get the left-hand edge as close to the same height as the out-feed table as possible (should be pretty close anyway). If it is below the out-feed height even when the mechanism is against the end stop loosen both allan keys, adjust the knob down, re-tighten and retry. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2. Once the left hand edge of the table is at height, loosen the left-hand allan key. This will stop the left-hand eccentric rod from turning. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 3. Use the handle to rotate the right-hand rod, lifting the right-hand edge of the table up/down. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 4. Rinse and repeat until you have the in-feed table co-planar to the out-feed. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 5. Loosen both allan screws and raise the handle until the mechanism hits the end-stop (0mm). Tighten the all screws. The table should now move up and down, remaining parallel to the out-feed table. |
