Tips on getting a straight cut on a table saw?

I appear to be unable to get a straight cut on my table saw. I replaced the sawblade. It looks straight and screwed in tight.



Does any one have any tips or know of a website that gives advice on how to get a straight cut on a table saw?Tips on getting a straight cut on a table saw?
There are adjustments you can make to get the blade square with the table. Use a T square. If the blade is not in perfect alignment it can bind up and then to throw the wood back at you and smoke the wood too.

After you check the blade alignment you need to do the same with the guide and make sure it's square.

I have a sears table saw and when it was new the blade was way off line with the table. I used the instruction book. After I adjusted it the saw has been very nice.

check that your fence is parallel to the saw blade ,i know on mine i have to have it on a slight angle
Use the fence, make sure it is parallel to the blade. Keep the wood tight to the fence as you push it through.
