ADJUSTING MITER SLOT PARALLEL TO BLADE

To reduce the risk of personal injury, turn

unit off and disconnect it from power source before

installing and removing accessories, before adjusting

or when making repairs. An accidental start-up can cause

injury.
The saw table was aligned at the factory. For accuracy,

check the alignment before beginning operation.
1. Place a combination square (ZZ) Fig. 46 on the table

with one edge of the square in the miter gauge slot.

Adjust the square so that the ruler's edge touches

the face of the saw blade at the forward position.

Lock the square.

2. Rotate the saw blade so that the same spot you

used in STEP 1 is in the rear position (Fig. 47) and

place ruler edge on the face of the saw at this spot.

Both the front and rear measure ments should be the

same.

3. Then, using a 10 mm hex wrench, loosen the four

screws - one shown at (A1) Fig. 48 - that hold the

table to the saw cabinet.

4. Adjust the front edge of the saw (as shown in Fig. 49).

The pivot point on the rear edge of the saw is shown

in Fig. 49.

5. Move table until the miter slot is parallel with the

blade, according to the method described in STEPS

1 and 2.

6. Once miter slots are parallel to the blade, finger

tighten the four bolts (one shown at (A1) Fig. 48).

Check the parallel one last time and fully tighten the

bolts.

7. Tilt the blade 45° (as shown in Fig. 50), and turn the

saw blade by hand. Ensure that the blade does not

contact the throat plate.
