Hi everyone,
I bought the Ridgid R4512 last year and have been fairly happy so far, but I am having an issue with the riving knife. When you have the riving knife setup as a splitter the very back edge makes contact with the throat plate. It happened with the original steel plate, but is also hitting my Leecraft zero clearance insert.
The riving knife is probably half an inch from the rear of the opening, and makes contact with about 1/4" more clearance needed. Could the trunions be mounted to far to the rear? I haven't found anyone with this problem.
