6. Raise the blade and check its position in the table

insert opening. If the blade position is not satisfac-

tory, make sure you have correctly shifted the com-

ponents discussed in this section. If you repeat these

steps and still cannot get favorable results, call our

Technical Support.

To cut accurately when using the miter gauge, the miter

slot MUST be parallel to the blade.

To check and adjust the miter slot parallel to the blade,

do these steps:

1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER SOURCE!

2. Raise the blade to its full height and set the blade

90˚ to the table.

3. Use an adjustable square to measure the distance

from the miter slot to a carbide tip on the blade as

shown in

Figure 66. Make sure that the face of the

adjustable square is even along the miter slot.

4. With the end of the adjustable square just touching

the tip, lock the square in place. Now, mark the car-

bide tip with a magic marker where you made this

measurement.

5. Rotate that tip to the other end of the table insert.

6. Slide the adjustable square down to the other end

of the table insert, and compare the distance from

the marked blade tip to the end of the adjustable

square.

7. If the blade tip does not touch the end of the adjust-

able square similar to the first measurement, then

the table will need to be adjusted.

8. To adjust the table, loosen the four bolts at the

table mounting locations shown in

Figure 67.
