SQUARING THE SAW BLADE TO THE FENCE
See Figures 17 - 20.
■ Unplug your saw.
WARNING:
Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental
starting causing possible serious personal injury.
■ Pull the saw arm all the way down and engage the lock
pin to hold the saw arm in transport position.
■ Loosen miter lock handle approximately one-half turn.
■ Depress the miter lock plate and rotate the miter table
until the pointer on the control arm is positioned in the
positive stop at 0
°
.
■ Release the miter lock plate and securely tighten the
miter lock handle.
■ Lay a framing square flat on the miter table. Place one
leg of the square against the fence. Slide the other leg
of the square against the flat part of saw blade.
NOTE: Make sure that the square contacts the flat part
of the saw blade, not the blade teeth.
■ The edge of the square and the saw blade should be
parallel as shown in figure 17.
■ If the front or back edge of the saw blade angles away
from the square as shown in figures 18 and 19, adjust-
ments are needed.
■ Using the 8 mm hex key provided, loosen the socket
head screws that secure the mounting bracket to the
miter table.
See Figure 20.
■ Rotate the mounting bracket left or right until the saw
blade is parallel with the square.
■ Retighten the screws securely and recheck the blade-
to-fence alignment.
After squaring adjustments have been made, it may be
necessary to loosen the scale indicator screw and reset
the indicator to zero.
