Here&#8217;s what it took to get it cleaned up, adjusted, and cutting true again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cleaning the rust off<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The machine had surface rust across the bed, which makes the stock drag and throws off an accurate cut. First step is getting the table surfaces clean before anything gets adjusted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Disassembly and adjustment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the rust off, the machine comes apart enough to check and adjust the squareness of the tables and the blades. This is the part that actually fixes how it cuts \u2014 cleaning alone doesn&#8217;t square a machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Testing the cut<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last step is running test stock through it to check for a clean, square cut before calling it done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jump to a part of the
