Dewalt 125 ras heeling

[jonnypetrie]

I'm setting up my dewalt 125 RAS, trying to get everything nice and square and accurate. i've checked out the radial arm saw setup video on youtube which is useful, however when he comes to sorting out the heel in the vertical plane he adjusts things that are not on my dw125. Can anyone help me with how to sort out the vertical heel on a dw125?

thanks

By heel, do you mean that when cutting a housing joint, it is deeper or shallower at the end of the cut than at the end?

If so, when I set mine up (also dw125), I levelled the table to the travel of the blade as a starting point.

if i pull the blade towards me to cross cut the front and back are not in line so the resultant cut width is greater than the blade width.

This DeWalt RAS Adjustment and Operating Instructions PDF (28-pages, 5.44MB) might help you set up your saw, in particular page 11 if I've understood you correctly:
