I just noticed today when using my mft i was using the guide rail to rout dadoes. Sometimes the rout would be slightly out of square then i noticed i was getting movement on the hinge side so i adjusted the little set screw in the plastic rail piece because it was letting it rock side to side when you would raise and lower it. I never knew what that was there for until i needed it to be presice. has any one else done this.

That Little screw is a "grub screw"   Don't you love it when a tool anticipates your issues and already has a solution at hand?
