Kent introduces himself and Sean, an engineer at Grizzly, and explains that they will demonstrate how to check the alignment of a table saw blade with the miter slot and make any necessary adjustments. He emphasizes the importance of aligning the miter slot and rip fence parallel to the blade for optimal results and safety. The procedure involves measuring the distance from the miter slot to a single tooth on the blade, checking for any gaps using a feeler gauge, and adjusting the table or trunnions accordingly. Kent provides detailed instructions for adjusting cabinet-style table saws and contractor/hybrid table saws, including how to add or remove shims for precise alignment. He recommends double-checking all bolts and covers after making adjustments and concludes by emphasizing the importance of proper alignment for quality cuts and safety.
