Making Adjustments to Your Saw

The head of the bolt is painted yellow for easy

identification. To adjust the position of the 45° limit

bolt, first loosen the locking nut and back it off

several turns. Next, turn the 45° limit bolt clockwise

to increase the angle of the limit stop, or counter-

clockwise to decrease the angle of the limit stop.
Now turn the tilt hand wheel clockwise until the

limit stop is reached. Recheck the angle of the

blade relative to the table. If further adjustment is

needed, decrease the tilt angle to about 30° and

readjust the 45° limit bolt. Repeat this process until

the blade is at 45° to the table when the limit stop

is engaged.
Once the 45° limit bolt is properly adjusted, turn

the locking nut clockwise until it is tight. The 45°

limit stop has now been set.

6. Adjusting the Table Insert:

The SawStop zero clearance insert has been designed to fit securely within the table opening and just below

the table top. The insert is pre-cut at the factory with a 10 inch blade after all alignments to the saw have been

completed.

As shown in Fig. 67, the insert includes

front and rear leveling screws to set the

height of the insert. In addition, positioning

screws at the front and right side of the

insert prevent it from rattling in the table

opening. Finally, a lock-down screw at the

front of the insert prevents the insert from

rising up unexpectedly. The lock-down

screw fits inside an adjustable threaded

bushing that prevents the lock-down screw

from pulling the front of the insert too low.
