ADJUSTMENTS
Check the 45' setting. Tilt the blade with the bevel
handwheel as far as it will go to the left. Place the
square against the blade (be sure the square is not
against one of the saw teeth). If the blade is not at
45", unscrew the 45' stop screw (right of blade),
turn the handwheel until the blade is correct, and
tighten the screw. Recheck and repeat if neces­
sary.
Check that the scale indicator is at 45'.
If not, loosen the scale indicator with a screwdriver,
adjust it within the slot, and retighten the screw.

ADJUSTING THE MITER GAGE
See Figure 40.
You can set the miter gage at 0' and plus or minus 45'
with the miter gage stop pin and adjustable stop
screws.
Note: The miter gage provides close accuracy in
angled cuts. For very close tolerances, test
cuts are recommended.
Loosen knob and pull out on stop pin to rotate miter
gage base past stop screws.
Loosen tile lock nut of the 0* stop screw at the stop
pin with a 8 mm wrench.
Place a 90* square against the miter gage rod and
the miter gage base.
If the rod is not square, loosen the knob, adjust the
rod, and tighten the knob.
Adjust the O' stop screw until it rests against the
stop pin.
Adjust the plus and minus 45* stop screws using a
45' triangle and the steps above.
