G1022 Series Contractor Saws -33-
45° and 90° Stops
The Model G1022 Series is equipped with posi-
tive stops at 45° and 90°. When properly adjust-
ed, they provide precise and dependable guides
for bevel adjustment. To set these stops:
1. Unplug the machine! Raise the saw blade
to its maximum height by turning the front
handwheel clockwise.
2. Set the saw blade at 90° to the table by turn-
ing the handwheel at the side of the machine
as far as it will go. Important: Do not force
the handwheels when setting the blade
height or bevel. If the handwheels offer resis-
tance, do not continue turning until you
determine the source of the resistance.
3. Once your blade is set at 90° to the table,
place a machinist's square or speed square
against the blade and table surface, as
shown in Figure 46.
4. With the square in place, inspect for variation
between the blade and square.
5. If a gap exists at either the top or the bottom
of the square, loosen lock nut (A) and adjust-
ment bolt (B) indicated in Figure 47.

6. Turn the handwheel until the blade and
square are flush from top to bottom.
7. Snug the adjustment screw and tighten the
lock nut. Recheck the blade with the square
to ensure that you have not over tightened
the screw.
8. Using the side handwheel, adjust the blade
bevel until you hit the 45° positive stop.
Check the bevel with your speed square or
an adjustable square set to 45°.
9. If variations exist, loosen the lock nut (C) and
adjust the stop bolt (D) (Figure 47) until your
blade and square match.
10. Tighten the lock nut and recheck the bevel
by adjusting the blade back to 90°, then back
to 45°. Correct again, if necessary.
