ASSEMBLY
TO REMOVE/INSTALL/ALIGN THE THROAT
PLATE
See Figures 15 - 16.
WARNING:
If the throat plate is too high or too low, the
workpiece can catch on the uneven edges
resulting in binding or kickback which could
result in serious personal injury. Verify the throat
plate is correctly seated. Before turning on the
saw, perform a dry run of the cutting operation
to make sure that no problems will occur when
the cut is made. If the workpiece catches, do
not attempt to use the saw. Contact customer
service for assistance.
 Lower the saw blade by turning the height adjusting knob
counterclockwise.
 To remove the throat plate, rotate the knob to the unlocked
position. Place your index finger into the hole, lift and pull
the throat plate out toward the front of the saw.
 To reinstall the throat plate, rotate the knob to the unlocked
position. Place throat plate back onto the saw and rotate
the knob to the locked position.
NOTE: The throat plate may move up and down over time.
If necessary, use a 2 mm hex key to adjust the screws in
the throat plate until it is level with the saw table.
