Hi everybody,
Just registered, having read a few posts and realised that you guys and girls have probably forgotten more about woodworking than I will ever know.
So I'm hoping you can help me with a few problems with my Kity 419 TS...
1. Am I right in thinking that you can't adjust the position of the blade w.r.t. the mitre gauge slot? I seem to have a slight 'toe-in' on my blade - the front of the blade is closer to the fence than the back of the blade. This causes the back of the blade to catch and mark the wood on the left as I push it through. (the fence is parallel with the slot)
2. How do keep the cross cut sledge fence square to the blade? It seems to move about a bit. Is there a clever way of setting it up?
3. Do any of you fellow Kity users get a strange noise from time to time? Occasionally instead of the usual Kity purr, it sounds more like a cement mixer being cleaned up - you know when they have a few bricks tumbling around inside. OK slight exaggeration, but when it's in this mood turning the blade by hand gives a clonk in a few places. So I think bearing knocking perhaps, but then it will run for a few more days and not make the noise
Any insights would be really appreciated
