The edge of the square and the saw blade should be
parallel as shown in figure 16.
If the front or back edge of the saw blade angles away
from the square as shown in figures 17 - 18, adjustments
are needed.
Using the blade wrench provided, loosen the socket head
screws that secure the miter fence to the miter table.
Rotate the miter fence left or right until the saw blade is
parallel with the square.
Retighten the screws securely and recheck the blade-to-
fence alignment.
Your saw has several scale indicators. After squaring
adjustments have been made, it may be necessary to loosen the
indicator screws and reset them to zero. See Figures 19 - 20.
SQUARING THE BLADE TO THE MITER TABLE
See Figures 21 - 23.
Unplug the saw.
Pull the saw arm all the way down and engage the lock
pin to hold the saw arm in transport position.
Loosen the miter lock handle approximately one-half turn
and squeeze the detent release lever.
Rotate the miter table until the scale indicator on the control
arm is positioned at 0°.
Release the detent release lever, then tighten the miter lock
knob to secure the miter table.
Loosen the bevel lock knob and set saw arm at 0° bevel
(blade set 90° to miter table). Tighten bevel lock knob.
Place a combination square against the miter table and
the flat part of saw blade.
NOTE: Make sure that the square contacts the flat part of
the saw blade, not the blade teeth.
Rotate the blade by hand and check the blade-to-table
alignment at several points.
The edge of the square and the saw blade should be
parallel as shown in figure 21.
If the top or bottom of the saw blade angles away from
the square as shown in figures 22 and 23, adjustments are
needed.
Loosen bevel lock knob.
Adjust positive stop adjustment screw to bring saw
blade into alignment with the square. See Positive Stop
Adjustment in the Adjustment section.
Tighten bevel lock knob. Recheck blade-to-table
alignment.
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.
Your saw has several scale indicators. After squaring
adjustments have been made, it may be necessary to loosen the
indicator screws and reset them to zero. See Figures 19 - 20.
