angle indicator on the front of the saw and
raise the blade several inches above the
table.
2. Place a machinist’s square flat on the table
and slide it alongside the blade. The square
should contact the blade evenly from bottom
to top. Make sure that a blade tooth does not
obstruct the movement of the square.
3. Adjust the handwheel until the square is
flush with the blade. Loosen the tilt indicator
arrow, set to zero, and retighten. Loosen and
adjust the stop bolt on the left side of the
front trunnion to allow a 90° stop point. See
Figure 23 for details.
4. Turn the blade angle handwheel until the
angle indicator points at the desired angle.
5. Tighten the handwheel locking knob.
6. Repeat Steps 1-6 for setting the blade to 45°
and adjust the 45° stop bolt on the right side
of the front trunnion. Use the 45° side of a
combo square or a bevel gauge set at 45°.

When preparing to operate your table saw, you
should adjust the blade height to approximately
1
⁄4" above the surface of the material you plan on
cutting. The handwheel at the front of the saw
adjusts the blade height. To adjust the blade
height:
1. Loosen the locking knob at the center of the
blade height handwheel.
2. Using a sample of the material you plan on
cutting as a gauge, turn the handwheel until
the blade reaches its intended height.
3. Retighten the locking knob.
4. Recheck your blade height with the sample
material and re-adjust, if necessary.
