45° Bevel Stop
Checking 45° Bevel Stop Setting
1. Hold the saw head assembly (Fig. 17, 24)
down and push in the head assembly lock
pin (35) to keep the saw in the DOWN posi-
tion.
2. Slide the saw head assembly (24) complete-
ly to the back and tighten the slide rail lock
knob (33).
3. Rotate the table to the 0° miter position.
4. Rotate the bevel lock knob (30) clockwise to
unlock the head assembly.
5. Check the position of the bevel stop indica-
tor (Fig. 20, 9). It should be at the "45°" po-
sition.
6. Tilt the saw head assembly (Fig. 17, 24) to
the left (counterclockwise) until it hits the
45° stop. This is where the saw's 45° stop is
set to make a 45° left bevel cut.
7. Use a combination square to check that the
blade is 45° to the table. Remove the rule
blade from the combination square
21). Place only the combination square's
head on the saw's table with its long flat side
resting on the table and its 45° side against
the tilted blade (21).
