NOTE: Calibrating the bevel setting automatically calibrates
the 33.9° and 45° left or right stops.
1. Lower saw head assembly (Fig. 22, 28) and engage head
assembly lock pin (8).
2. Slide the saw head assembly (28) completely to the back
and tighten the slide rail lock knob (Fig. 26, 7) by turning
it clockwise (to the right).
3. Remove the sliding fences (Fig. 22, 12) completely to
avoid hitting it with the saw head.
4. Check bevel stop indicators located on the left and right
side of the bevel post on the table (Fig. 24, 33). It should
be at 45°.

the lock nut. When this is complete you will be able to ad-
just the bevel stop bolt by hand.

head to the lift.
• Rotate the bevel stop bolt counter-clockwise to
adjust the head to the right.

ting" on page 26 to check your modifications. If fur-
ther adjustment is required, repeat the steps above.
9. Once satisfactory, lock the bevel lock lever (Fig. 20, 34)
