The shark guard came this week. Got it installed and hope this is the right forum for my question. I remember the owners manual saying to keep the splitter - riving knife (whatever its called) about 1/8 inch back from the blade teeth. I have the shark guard set up this way, but I have to raise the blade several inches to get a 3/4 in. piece of wood under the lower plate on the shark guard.
I just noticed that Whaler posted pics of his new guard and he has the splitter (?) back quite far. But that also allows him to keep the blade lower to cut with.
So what is prefered? Keep it close to the blade or back far enough and raised to allow wood to pass thru?
My question is about as clear as mud - sorry.
Thanks,
