SQUARING THE BLADE TO THE MITER TABLE
See Figures 17 - 20.
Remove the battery pack from the tool.
Pull the saw arm all the way down and engage the lock
pin to hold the saw arm in transport position.
Lift the miter lock lever.
Rotate the miter table until the pointer aligns with zero
on the miter scale.
Push the miter lock lever down to lock the miter table.
Loosen bevel lock knob and set saw arm at 0
(blade set 90
to miter table). Tighten bevel lock knob.
°
Place a 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 18.
If the top or bottom of the saw blade angles away from
the square as shown in figures 19 and 20, adjustments
are needed.
Loosen the bevel lock knob.
Adjust positive stop adjustment screw to bring saw
blade into alignment with the square. See Positive
Stop Adjustment in the Adjustments section.
Retighten 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.

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 indi-
cator screws and reset them to zero.
