• move the front sled with the ball bearing so close to the saw blade till the bearing touches the blade

  

   

• Now also move the rear slew to the front sled and insert a reference piece for the thickness (drill bit, original piece of wood,…)

  

  

  

   

• tighten the screw of the rear sled.

   

• remove the reference piece and move the front slew to the rear sled. Now also tighten the screw of the front sled.

   

• now the gap between the blade and the ball bearing is excactly the thickness of your reference piece

   

• use the parallel fence of the table saw to press the work piece against the ball bearing and cut the strips.
