JET Table Saw adjustable?

[scratchedup]

JET- JWTS-10JF Table saw.
Per the manual...It appears the blade is not adjustable relative to being parallel to the table guide slots or the fence.

Is this accurate?

Is there any way to make this adjustment?
Thanks

Looking at this diagram

I don't see an easy way. On my old CMan, there are four bolts holding the motor / blade to the underside of the table, and the brackets on the motor blade are slotted.

On yours, it looks like this piece in red (pdf pg 35) attaches to the the table, and I don't see slots there. Might be able to loosen the bolts (#96 x2), and lean it the correct way, and retighten to get a hair of movement. Or possibly moving the blue piece (assuming the red nd the blue are attached somehow.

With the blade
yoke that pin 109 goes through joining to the blue piece, I see no options near there, so trying to work my way back.

It would have to be the piece in red, but there are two of those (one in front and one in back), so you have four bolts to loosen.

I believe they make these for several contractors style saws. They certainly should be able to tell you if it fits your Jet saw. https://www.in-lineindustries.com/products/contractor-saw-pals/

This will show you the correct way to adjust the grunions on a contractor or hybrid saw.

I would assume you loosen the front and rear trunions where they bolt up to the table. The holes should be slightly over size to allow a bit of adjustment.

Stumpy Nubs know what he's talking about!

One of those dial micrometers (in the video above) with the miter slot bar is very useful and you'll likely only use it once for the initial alignment. I think I did it only once on my saw since 1999.

..."I wuld assume you loosen the front and rear trunions where they bolt up tothe table. The holes should be slightly over size to allow a bit of adjustment."

I did this and it does move a smidge. Hopefully I will be able to make this work...its crude and slow due to loosen/drift it/measure it/tighten/measure/repeat. Thanks for the help.

If you watched the video, he suggests leaving one bolt a little more than finger tight. That gives you a pivot point that makes adjustment less crude.
