_ WARNING: Make sure the switch is off, the
switch key is removed, and your saw is
unplugged. Failure to do so could result in

The bevel scale should show 0° when the blade is set
vertical at 90° to table, and 45° when blade is at 45 °
tilt.
• Raise the blade all the way up by turning the height
handwheel. Lift the blade guard.
• Loosen bevel lock handle and turn the bevel
handwheel clockwise to tilt the blade. Reverse it
and turn the handwheel counterclockwise until it
stops.
• Check the blade angle with a combination square.
Don't let the square touch a blade tooth. The blade
should be at 90 ° and the scale indicator at 0°.
Note: The scale indicator is the plastic plate on the
scale at the front of the cabinet.
• If the scale indicator does not point to 0°, loosen
the scale indicator with a screwdriver, adjust it
within the slot, and retighten the screw.
• If the blade angle is wrong, adjust the 90° stop
screw (left of the blade, looking from the front). Start
