om...
I'm (still) putting together my Unisaw that came with the right side
extension table and mobile base. I have the saw on the mobile base
and the cast iron wing tables on both sides of the saw. Now I'm
trying to get the right side (wood) extension table installed and I'm
not making good progress. At this point I think the wood extension
table is not flat.

When I put my 4' level on the top of the extension table (loosely
installed on the saw and mobile base) I get a gap in about the middle
of the table (lengthwise, not front/back) that is about 3/32". When I
put the level on the bottom of the front of the table the level rocks.
So based on both these observations I'm thinking that the extension
table itself is not flat. (I have turned the level over and get the
same reading. So I'm pretty sure that my level isn't the problem.)

Is there anything I could have done to cause this? The extension
table has been sitting in my garage for about three weeks leaning up
against a wall (almost vertical).

Is there any way that I can correct this? It seems severe enough to
me that I'm not going to be able to do anything about it and I'm going
to have to ask Delta to send a new table.

Thanks,

Jim,

When I set up my Jet cabinet saw it took a bit of tinkering to get the
extension table in the same plane as the cast iron table over it's length
and front to back. The cast iron table was leveled in all directions first.
Then I started working from the cast iron table end and worked my way out
towards the other end using a 4" level and screwing it in place a set of
holes (front and back) at a time. There was enough flex in the table to
straighten it out using this approach. Setting the height of the table legs
to final position was the final step. It seemed to be more of a process
issue than a product issue in my case as when I first assembled it I just
bolted it in place and it was way off! From your description I suspect it
may be the same for you.
