ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING:
Before performing any adjustment, make sure the tool
is unplugged from the power supply. Failure to heed
this warning could result in serious personal injury.
The compound miter saw has been adjusted at the factory
for making accurate cuts. However, some of the compo-
nents might have been jarred out of alignment during ship-
ping. Also, over a period of time, readjustment will probably
become necessary due to wear. After unpacking the saw,
check the following adjustments before you begin using
the saw. Make any readjustments that are necessary and
periodically check the parts alignment to make sure that the
saw is cutting accurately.
PIVOT ADJUSTMENTS
NOTE: These adjustments were made at the factory and
normally do not require readjustment.
TRAVEL PIVOT ADJUSTMENT
 The saw arm should rise completely to the up position
by itself.
 If the saw arm does not raise by itself or if there is play
in the pivot joints, have saw repaired at your nearest
authorized service center.
BEVEL PIVOT ADJUSTMENT
 The compound miter saw should bevel easily by loosen-
ing the bevel lock knob and tilting the saw arm to the left.
 If movement is tight or if there is play in the pivot, have
saw repaired at your nearest nearest authorized service
center.
DEPTH STOP
The depth stop limits the blade's downward travel. It allows
the blade to go below the miter table enough to maintain
full cutting capacities.
The depth stop is factory set to provide maximum cut-
ting capacity for the 10 in. blade provided with the saw.
Therefore, the saw with blade provided should never need
adjustments.
POSITIVE STOP ADJUSTMENTS
See Figure 35.
These adjustments were made at the factory and normally
do not require readjustment.
To adjust:
 Unplug the saw.
 Loosen the bevel lock knob by turning the knob coun-
terclockwise.
 Square the blade to the miter table as described in the
Assembly section of this manual.
 If the blade is out of square, adjust by tightening or loos-
ening the positive stop adjustment screw to bring blade
into alignment.
 Retighten bevel lock knob. Recheck blade-to-table align-
ment.
NOTE: The above procedure can be used to check blade
squareness of the saw blade to the miter table at both
0° and 45° angles. There are two different adjustment
screws for these angles.
The saw has two scale indicators, one on the bevel scale
and one on the miter scale. After squaring adjustments have
been made, it may be necessary to loosen the indicator
screws and reset them to zero. See figures 19 and 20.
