Check out paage 11 of the manual here.

I know you have probably done that, but what issues are you having?
These are pretty simple mechanisms. They have some set screws for adjusting alignment and a cam clamp to lock the knife or guard in place.
Is the guard way out of alignment?
If so are blade stabilizers installed?

You might also want to check that the knife is not too thick for the blade.
To do this easily, you can do a short stop cut on some material.
Then slip the slot you just cut over the riving knife itself to insure there is clearance. If there isn't, you would need a different knife or blade.
