Sliding Table Alignment for Felder Equipment

Toe-out is adjusted with the following procedure: Felder used to supply a bracket with adjustment bolts on the machine chassis that pushed sideways on the lower carriage to adjust the toe-out. Since about year 2009, they began eliminating these brackets/adjustment bolts, presumably to save a few dollars in manufacturing cost while at the same time driving up the amount of technician time by at least 30 minutes during commissioning. Your machine may or may not have this bracket with adjustment bolt (it's shown in this photo: https://tinyurl.com/2njnzsyj ) If your machine does not have this adjustment mechanism, here is what I recommend - this is how I perform the toe-out adjustment, it's crude, but about your only choice. 1 - After the gross alignment of the sliding table height using the four central adjustment studs, proceed as follows: 2 - Loosen the top nuts on 3 of the 4 studs. I generally keep the stud on the inside ahead of the saw blade tight, and loosen the other three. 3 - Pull the slider to the extreme infeed or outfeed end of it's travel. 4- -Standing at the end of the sliding table, use your body weight to push the sliding table laterally, toward or away from the machine as required to alter the toe-out. 5 - In practice, I find it useful to just bump my hip against the sliding table, but occasionally more force is required, but I wouldn't get carried away or you might break the plastic bearing cage that's sandwiched between the lower carriage and the sliding table extrusion. 6 - If this does not bring the table into proper toe-out, loosen the top nut on the 4th stud and try again. 7 - Once the toe-out is where you want it, tighten all the upper nuts again and re-check all alignments (height, level, and toe-out). I have encountered a few Felder machines, where additional lateral force and leverage was required. In those situations, I removed the end-plates on the lower carriage extrusion, inserted a 6-foot long rigid pipe or hardwood 2x2 into the internal webbing of the extrusion, and used the pipe as leverage to force the lower extrusion to pivot laterally.
