Are you talking about screw #237 ? http://www.shopsmith.com/ownersite/part ... xpview.htm If so it's only function is to tlt the rip fence for using the flat sanding disk. Not a real good system, but it worked if you feed the wood from the back of the table toward the front.racerchris wrote:Chuck,....One more thing, I went through the rip fence adjustment.
