Introduction
In order to get the most enjoyment out of your radial saw it is important that the machine be prop-
erly assembled, adjusted, and aligned. This procedure, although not difficult, takes time; perhaps
eight hours or longer for the inexperienced user. However, after this initial set-up a weekly tune-up
can be completed in approximately ten minutes by checking the alignment and only adjusting those
settings which are incorrect.
