Angle Pointer
Angle Pointer
Once the positive stops have been set, the angle
pointer will require adjusting. To adjust the angle
pointer:
1. The angle pointer is located behind the arbor
height hand wheel. Figure 24. (hand wheel
removed for clarity)
2. Turn the arbor tilting hand wheel until it stops
on the 90° positive stop.
3. Loosen the pointer and set it to ''0'' on scale.
Tighten the screw.
4. Turn the arbor tilting hand wheel until it stops
on the 45° stop.
5. If the pointer is set on 45˚, skip to the next
adjustment. If it does not point to 45°, repeat
steps 2-4 until the pointer is adjusted cor-
rectly.
Miter Gauge
To adjust the miter gauge so it is perpendicular to
the saw blade:
1. Loosen the lock knob on the miter gauge and
place a square against the face of the miter
body and the blade.
2. Adjust the miter body until there is no space
between the square and the blade. Tighten
the lock knob.
3. With the stop link in the up position, loosen
the jam nut and adjust the stop screw until it
is seated against the stop link. Figure 25.
4. Now loosen the setscrew on the left front
side of the miter bar, adjust the pointer to 90˚
and retighten the setscrew.
5. To adjust to 45˚, follow steps 1-4 using an
adjustable square set to 45˚.
6. After rotating the miter body from 45˚ to 90˚
and back a few times, double check your
adjustments at both angles to assure that
you have accurately set your miter gauge.
