Hi
I've almost finished setting up my Axminster TS 200 table saw now but inevitably the last thing I've got to do is proving to be difficult. The riving knife is way out of alignment (skewed 3/16" front to back) and is also a bit bent. I haven't used the saw yet because I wanted to get everything set up right first so I don't know if I should phone Axminster and ask for a replacement riving knife, or are there ways I can fix it myself? I can shim it square to the blade but I don't want to attempt bending it back into shape if I can get a replacement.
It's a nice little saw but it's a right turnip to set up! I didn't know that bolts could be made from plasticine :lol:
Thanks
