2. Slide the bevel lock lever over the shaft, aligning
the flats on the shaft to the flats on the lever's
mounting hole. The lever should be horizontal with
the handle to the front (see Figure 1).
3. Slide the 6 mm flat washer over the shaft (area
with screw threads) and against the recessed wall
of the lever.
4. Finger-tighten the 10mm lock nut on the shaft. Use
the 10mm socket tool to tighten the lock nut.
NOTE: The 6/4mm hex key is placed through the
holes in the socket tool to assist in tightening.
5. Lift the bevel lock lever and push back down to
check that the lever is securely in place.
Attaching the Miter lock Knob – Locate the miter
lock knob from among the loose parts.

2. Insert the long shaft of the miter lock knob through
this hole until it stops.

until it is tight or "locked."
