The sliding miter table assembly has been preset at the factory to be parallel to the blade. However,
misalignment during shipping or requirements for very precise and accurate cuts may require
realignment. The square relationship between the blade and the miter fence as it travels the entire
distance from the front to the rear of the miter table base during a cut is very important for making
precise and accurate cuts.
To avoid unnecessary setups and adjustments, we suggest that you check these setups carefully with a
framing square and make practice cuts in scrap wood before making finish cuts in good workpieces.
Note: Follow the general rule of measuring twice and cutting once.
Do not loosen any screws for the following adjustments until you have made checks and are sure
adjustments are needed. Once screws have been loosened, these settings must be reset.
Two basic checks should be made to determine if adjustments are necessary:
• The miter base must be parallel to the blade as the table slides from the front to the rear of the miter
table assembly.
• The miter fence must be square to the blade when set at exactly zero (0°) on the mitertable scale.
This is necessary in order to be able to use the scale on the miter table. The miter table has
adjustment screws for squaring miter fence to blade and maintaining 0° scale settings when miter
base adjustments are required.
Note: These checks and adjustments are being explained in step by step procedures, however, you
should be aware that they depend upon each other.
