Same here - 10" cast iron, new in 1963, 10" Freud thin kerf. Same Acme screw adjustment. I pulled the whole thing (trunion) apart to fix it. Saw dust and pine tar can really gum it up, but mine worked like a champ (at least for a while) after a good cleaning. One problem is that the Acme thread screw has a tendency to bend after a while - not so good. Sears no longer stocks that part, either. I was able to get the angle right by shimming the table with washers (geez, what a hack) but it works pissa.
