Alignment (Adjustments)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from unex-
pected starting or electrical shock, do not plug the
saw in. The power cord must remain unplugged
whenever you are working on the saw.
Step One - Checking and Adjusting Blade
Squareness to Fence (Miter Alignment)
1. To check blade squareness to fence, use a combina-
tion square. Place the square against the fence and
next to the blade as illustrated. Place the square so the
set in the teeth won't hold it from the blade. The blade
should contact the full length of the square.
2. If blade contacts full length of square, proceed to next
adjustment. If blade is not square to the fence, follow
the alignment procedures: a. through f.
NOTE: Take the saw off its stand, bench or plywood base
if readjustment is necessary.
a. Loosen miter lock knob a half turn. The saw power
head should still be secured in the lowered position
by the stop shaft.
CAUTION: To keep from losing control of the unit,
steady the base with one hand while loosening the
two bolts with the other hand.
b. With the unit securely resting on a large stable sur-
face, tilt the unit by lifting up on one side or the other
of the base. Using allen wrench supplied, loosen the
two miter index spring cap head screws on the
underside of the turn table.
c. Return the saw to its normal resting position. Make
sure the miter lock knob is loose but do not release
the index spring.
d. Use the miter saw knob to move the table so that the
blade contacts the full length of the square. Watch
out for tooth set. Turn the miter lock knob clockwise
to lock saw square to fence.
e. Tilt saw as in Step b and tighten cap head screws.
f. Recheck blade squareness to fence and readjust if
necessary.
