I've had difficulty for some time raising the blade and setting bevels. The handle didn't seem to engage and turn or tilt anything. Assuming it was just saw dust build up and being too lazy and short on time, I ignored it (dumb, dumb, dumb...)
EDIT..definitely a bevel issue, not a raising issue. I thought there was an issue with that pin egaging the shaft, but that was wrong. That shaft does engage fine when set to raise. I just can't set a bevel without effort--basiclly pulling the handle out towards me. Is that normal? I don't remember having to do that before.
I did not take anything apart yet, but I will be shortly. Just came in for a quick break and figure I would ask on here.
