   Well done and how did you find this out?

   process of elimination.  The front of the trunnion just would not budge.  Stupid me saw that the rod for adjust the pitch was connected to the base.  There is a nut that helps hold the rod to the base for stability.  Loosen that bolt and you are good to go.  That was nowhere in the instructions from delta or the supposedly more detailed set they sent me.  You have no idea how much of a relief that was getting it fixed.  Returning the saw would have been impossible and expensive.

   I know your feelings. Some instructions need some serious work! Glad you got it fixed.

   Congratulations!

   Make sure you check it at angles other than 90 degrees if you haven't already.

   Good point, Don.  That's where I realllllly had trouble with the old Jet -- at 45* bevel, things were way out of whack.  Gave me a permanent phobia of ripping at that angle, LOL.forestgirl -- you can take the girl out of the forest, but you can't take the forest out of the girl ;-)
