Miter Gauge Adjustments
The miter gauge is equipped with stop screws that allow
you to easily adjust the miter gauge 0°– 30° left, 90°, and
0°–45° right. The stop screws contact the shaft, which
moves in or out of the way for adjustments.

Checking/Setting 90° Stops
1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!
2. Slide the miter gauge into the T-slot on the table,
then adjust the gauge so the 90° stop screw rests
against the sliding shaft.
3. Place the square evenly against the face of the miter
gauge and the blade, as shown in Figure 108.
— If the square touches the miter gauge and the
blade (not the teeth) evenly at the same time,
then it is square to the blade and the 90° stop
is set correctly. No further adjustments are
necessary.
— If the square does not touch the miter gauge and
blade evenly at the same time, then proceed to
Step 4.
4. Loosen the hex nut (jam nut) that secures the 90°
stop screw (see Figure 109), and adjust the stop
screw until it is seated against the shaft while the
square is evenly touching the miter body and the
blade body, then tighten the hex nut.
5. Loosen the screw on the front of the miter bar,
adjust the pointer to 0°, then tighten the screw.
Checking/Setting 45° Stops
Follow the same process with the 45° and 30° stops that
you followed with the 90°, except using a 45° and 30°
square or adjustable square to verify that the miter body
is 45° and 30° to the blade, as shown in Figure 109.
