It is frustrating when the only table in your shop that has a chance to have a clear work surface on it, is also the one with a blade sticking out. I have an old Delta Unisaw that does the same thing. Mine will lower completely if I grab the handwheel and pull it towards me. There is some hidden slop in there that doesn’t show up otherwise. When I do this the blade drops about 1/8 inch and doesn’t stick up above the table.
