Run some material through it and see that it can make a tight fitting (no light) joint on two pieces when mated. Failing that can simply mean a knife adjustment problem, but could be indicative of table alignment. If it doesn't work well as is, unless you have the tools and expertise to assess the table alignment, I'd walk...
