Came up so fast because I am cheap, lazy and no patient man! Hahaha
Just kidding, in most case easy to get is very important especially DIY type experiments like we do. Right?
It was wallyc14 post. Great idea.

Loosen knob (A with pink allow in picture)
Spray WD-40 or any rust dissolving type lube like "Liquid Wrench" from the upper side of the arm adjuster (B with yellow allow in picture)
Let it soak overnight at least. Let it sit longer is better.
Gently tap the top of adjustment arm (C with green allow in picture) with a small hammer (Do not hit hard!)
Tap tap tap... It should flee the arm and the whole finger thingy become adjustable up and down.
I will not online for a while from now... I hope above helps.
Agree with Mark. The fingers should hold 3/4 plate. Check the fingers adjustment. Any bent or modifications? Sounds like finger adjustment mods would be your answer instead of adding plate thickness or something... Could you upload any picture of your saw and finger parts?
How about clamp thick steel or aluminum plate on the top of base plate instead? Note it should be decent metal C-clamp for your safety.
Or stick thin material you want to cut onto thick scrap wood plate with double side tape I guess...
Glad to help. I personally think we could use more picture attachment. Not only about this thread sometime a picture tells more than words in our type of forum. JMHO
