Miter Gauge Calibration
The miter gauge should be perpendicular to the face of
the disc when it is set at 90° and mounted in the table
slot. If not, follow this procedure.

Try Square or Machinist's Square .............................1
Phillips Screwdriver #1 .........................................1
To calibrate the miter gauge, do these steps:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Use a try square or machinist’s square with one edge
against the face of the miter gauge and the other
against the disc face, as shown in Figure 20.
3. Loosen the lock knob on the miter gauge and adjust
the face of the miter gauge so it is flush with the
edge of the square, tighten the gauge lock knob, and
verify the setting.
4. Loosen the degree scale pointer, position the pointer
on90˚,thenre-tightenthescrew.
5. Re-check the miter scale accuracy with the square.
