Adjusting Blade Parallel To
The Miter Gauge Slots
The blade was adjusted parallel to the miter gauge slots at the
factory. In order to insure accurate cuts and help prevent
kickback, this adjustment should be rechecked. If adjustment is
necessary, follow the steps below.
To prevent personal injury, always disconnect
the plug from power source before making any
adjustments.
1. Turn elevation wheel and raise blade as high as it will go.
2. Select a point on the body of the saw blade that is set to the
left when viewing blade from the front of saw, and mark
1 with a
pencil (Fig. 18).
3. Place the base of a combination square against the edge of
the miter gauge slot, and extend the sliding rule of square so it
just touches the marked point
1 on the body of the saw blade at
the rear of the table.
4. Rotate blade and check the same marked point
1 of the saw
blade at the front of the table (Fig. 18).
5. If the front and back measurements, shown in Figure 18, are
not identical, loosen the four alignment bolts
2, located on the
underside of the table at the front and rear of the saw with hex
wrench supplied with your saw (Fig. 19 & 20). Carefully move
the saw blade until the blade is parallel to the miter gauge slot,
and securely tighten all four bolts.
Miter Gauge Adjustment
To check your miter gauge accuracy, move the miter gauge in
line with blade and use a combination square to make sure the
miter gauge body is 90 degress to the blade (Fig. 21).
To adjust the miter gauge for 90 degrees:
1. Loosen lock nut
3, adjustment screw 4, and lock knob 5.
2. Flip stop plate
6 down.
3. Rotate miter gauge body until it is 90 degrees to the blade.
4. Tighten lock knob
5.
5. Flip stop plate
6 up and tighten adjustment screw 4 until it
contacts stop plate
6.
6. Tighten lock nut
8.
7. If pointer
7 is not pointing to 90 degrees, loosen set screw 8
on side of miter gauge bar and rotate pointer 7 to 90 degrees
mark. Tighten set screw
8.
8. To adjust the miter gauge for 45 degress left and right, repeat
steps 1-6, but use 45 degree stops.
