only if
90 Stop
1. Disconnect the saw from the power source.
2. Turn the blade tilting handwheel until the blade tilting
scale is at 90°.
3. Turn the blade elevation handwheel and raise the
blade to the maximum elevation.
4. Place a combination square on the table and against
the blade to check if the blade is 90°to the table.
5. If the blade is not 90°to the table. Remove the back
cover (2) of the base by removing the screw(1), three
for each side.
6. Adjust the bevel tilting handwheel to make an
adequate distance between the anchor block (3) and
bevel gear (4).
7. Loosen the two set screws(5) of the anchor block
(3) with 3mm allen key.
8. Separate the anchor block(3) from the worm(6).
When the bevel angle is more than 90°, turn the
anchor block(3) to A direction in adequate degree until
the bevel angle and bevel scale is the same.
When the bevel angle is less than 90°, turn the
anchor block to B direction in adequate degree until
the bevel angle and bevel scale is the same.
9. When completing the above adjustment, replace the
set screws(5) and tighten them.
