Indicator
(For miter scale)
○ Indicator (for miter scale) adjustment
Unlock the miter lock handle to move the turntable to
the 0° position. With the miter lock handle unlocked,
allow the positive stop to snap into place as you rotate
the turntable to 0°.
Observe the indicator (for miter scale) and miter scale
as shown in Fig. 26. If the indicator (for miter scale)
does not indicate exactly 0° loosen the 4 mm screw
holding the indicator (for miter scale). In place
reposition the indicator (for miter scale) and tighten
the 4 mm screw.
13. Miter angle adjustment
The slide compound miter saw scale can be easily
read, showing miter angles from 0° to 45° to the left
and right. The miter saw table has nine of the most
common angle setttings with positive stops at 0°, 15°,
22.5°, 31.6°, and 45°. These positive stops position
the blade at the desired angle quickly and accurately.
Follow the process below for quickest and most
accurate adjustments. (Fig. 27)

Adjusting miter angles:
(1) Push up the miter lock handle to release the turntable.
(2) Push down the positive stop lever until the detent
lever catches on it to release the "positive stop".
(3) Rotate the turntable and set the indicator to line up
with the desired angle of the miter scale. At this time,
when using the positive stop function, pull the detent
lever in the direction of the arrow near the desired
angle as shown in Fig. 27, release the detent lever,
and move the turntable to secure it in place at the
desired angle via the positive stop function. (0°, 15°,
22.5°, 31.6°, and 45°)
(4) Push down the miter lock handle to secure the
turntable in place.
Detent lever (Fig. 27)
The detent lever allows for the table to be micro adjusted,
disengaging the positive detent stops feature. When a
required miter angle is close to a positive detent stop, this
detent lever prevents the wedge on the positive stop lever
from slipping into that detent slot on the base.
14. LED lighting system (Fig. 28) [XACT CUT LED™]
CAUTION
Do not stare at operating lamp. Staring into the
light beam may result in serious injury or vision
loss.
The LED lighting system [XACT CUT LED™] casts the
shadow of the blade onto the workpiece. This results in
greater accuracy of cuts and requires no adjustments.
To use this feature, turn the LED light switch on.
Bring the motor head down so the blade is approximately
1/4 in. (6 mm) from the workpiece. The shadow of the
blade will be projected onto the workpiece, indicating
where the blade teeth will make contact as the cut is
made.
