Not really a fix, but an adjustment?

I've got a PPro 1500w 254mm portable table saw (model CLM1500TSS) which I was moderately happy with, until I discovered the reason why it wasn't cutting as accurately as I wanted. Dropping a combination square on the T-track and butting the end up to the part of the saw blade closest to me revealed a noticeable gap occurring as I pushed the square up the track. As I see it, the arbor is out of plumb to the table, but despite turning it upside down and looking into the guts of the thing, I really can't see any obvious to adjust.

The performancepowertools.com website appears to be defunct and a phone call to the help line proved no help at all.

Can any of you kind people help, please?

Doh! Just found the answer to my own question.

If anyone else is interested, I discovered that slackening off the four bolts holding the blades rise/fall/tilt mechanism (two with Allen head bolts and two a bit deeper down with cross-head bolts I think) allows for enough movement to get the blade back in line again.

Nice, square, accurate cuts at last....
