8. tilt the blade to 45° and repeat Steps 3-6.

—if the blade is still parallel with the miter

slot, continue onto the

Blade Alignment

procedure.

—if the blade was parallel with the miter slot

at 90° but not at 45°, one end of the table
will need to be shimmed higher with metal
shim stock.

9. loosen the three table mounting bolts.

10. refer to Figures 122 and 123 for shim

placement. if the distance of a is shorter than
B, shim(s) will need to be placed under cor-
ners #1 and #2. if the distance of B is shorter
than a, shim(s) will need to be placed under
corner #3. very thin shim stock works well.

11. tighten one bolt a small amount and then

move on to each of the others, tightening
each down the same amount. Continue to
rotate through the bolts, tightening them a
little each time until they are all secure.

12. now recheck the blade to miter slot at 90°

and 45° by repeating

Steps 3-6.

—if the distance of a and B are equal,

continue to

Step 13, then go to Blade

Alignment.

—if the distances are still off, repeat

Steps

9-11.

13. once the miter slot is adjusted to the blade,

recheck all measurements and be sure the
table mounting bolts are secure. also, if you
remove the table in the future, note the shim
placements and reassemble them exactly
how they came apart.

14. reconnect the power, then recalibrate the

digital readout (refer to procedure on

page

79) before operating the saw.
