I had sort of the same problem with a Grizzly contractor's saw. I
could get the blade lined up all nice and parallel to the miter slots,
but when I tilted the blade and returned it back upright, it wouldn't
be parallel anymore. The problem was slack in the half-moon sector
castings in the tilting mechanism. I fixed my problem by purchasing a
Unisaw.
