    Question Need help trueing ML392

    My ML392 is way out of whack. What I'm doing to try and fix it is:

    1. get the outfeed table right across the table measuring against the blades. The means changing the lower adjustment bolt up or down to get it OK across the table.
    2. There seems to be no way of adjusting the outer end of the outfeed table up or down (pitch), hence it has to be left the way it is and so the pitch of the outfeed table is now the pitch that the infeed will have to be adjusted to (true?)
    3. adjust the infeed table in the same way as 1 so that it's level across the table against the blades.
    4. now, after 1-3 the near-blade part of the infeed right is correct against the outfeed and the blades, but the pitch of the outfeed is stuffed: putting a straight edge from the outer of the outfeed table to the outer of the infeed table shows the infeed is lower (at the outer end) by about 15mm! Now my problem is I can't see anyway to adjust the pitch (ie. raise the outer end only) of the infeed table. There's a couple of strange bolts with hex adjusters (?) on the outside/front of the infeed table and I thought these could be use to adjust. However, they're fairly far forward making it less clear they can adjust the outer while leaving the inner part of the table stationary, and besides, there's also two what look like lugs which seem to make these bolts & hex dudes impossible to use to adjust anything anyway. With the swing mechanism of the tables, there doesn't seem to be anywhere to shim either.

    So I'm stumped - can anyone assist?
