TO SET THE BLADE AT 0° AND 45°
See Figures 45 - 46.
The angle settings of your saw have been set at the factory
and, unless damaged in shipping, should not require set-
ting during assembly. After extensive use, it may need to be
checked.
Raise the blade and remove the blade guard.
If the blade is not perfectly vertical (0°):
Loosen the adjustment bolt and the bevel locking lever.
Place a combination square beside the blade on the left.
Lock the angle by pushing the bevel locking lever and
retighten the adjustment bolt.
Turn the bevel handle until the bevel indicator points to
zero. If the bevel handle is turned as far as possible and
doesn't indicate zero properly, you may need to adjust
the bevel indicator.
If the blade is not an exact 45°:
Loosen the adjustment bolt and the bevel locking lever.
Place a combination square beside the blade on the left.
Lock the angle by pushing the bevel locking lever and
retighten the adjustment bolt.
Turn the bevel handle until the bottom of the blade has
moved completely to the left side of the slot. Lock the
angle by pushing the bevel locking lever.
If the blade is not an exact 45°, loosen the adjustment
bolt and the bevel locking lever.
Adjust the bevel indicator to 45°.
