ADJUSTING SAW TRAVEL
SQUARE WITH FENCE
The 12” Radial Arm Saw is equipped with 90 degree and
45 degree positive miter stops. This feature makes it
possible to produce accurate miter cuts and square
cross-cuts at all times.
To do accurate work, the saw blade travel must be 90
degrees to the fence. If saw blade travel is not 90
degrees to the fence, this means that the track arm is not
properly aligned.
To check and adjust, proceed as follows:
1. DISCONNECT TOOL FROM POWER SOURCE.
2. Remove blade guard assembly and saw blade from
the cuttinghead assembly (A) Fig. 50, and insert wrench
(B) between arbor flanges in place of blade as shown.
Tighten arbor nut.
3. Place a steel square (C) Fig. 50, against fence as
shown, and lower cuttinghead assembly (A) so that
wrench (B) just clears the table top.
4. Pull cuttinghead assembly (A) Fig. 50, along square
(C). If wrench (B) does not travel parallel to the square
(C), the following adjustment is necessary.
5. Remove three screws (D) Fig. 51, and remove miter
scale (E).
6. Loosen three screws (F) Fig. 52, and loosen track
arm clamp handle (G).
7. To move front end of track arm to the right, loosen
set screw (H) Fig. 53, and tighten set screw (J). To move
front end of track arm to the left, loosen set screw (J) and
tighten set screw (H).
8. When the cuttinghead travels parallel to the square,
tighten three screws (F) Fig. 52. Replace miter scale (E)
Fig. 51, and replace and tighten three screws (D). Make
certain the zero graduation mark on the scale (E) lines up
with the pointer (K).
9. Replace blade and blade guard assembly.
