SERVICE
The swivel base is equipped with three angle
stops to provide quick adjustments to 45°L, 0°,
and 45°R (Figure 42). If cuts made using these
stops are not sufficiently accurate, the stops will
need to be adjusted.

To adjust the angle stops:
1. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER!
2. Rotate the headstock to the right
approximately 10°, engage the 0° angle
stop by flipping it towards the vise, then
rotate the headstock to the left until it stops
against the 0° stop. Tighten the headstock
lock lever.
3. Lower the headstock, then place a square
flat on the table and against both the
stationary jaw and the blade, as shown in
Figure 43.
4. If the square does not fit snugly against both
the stationary jaw and the blade, loosen the
jam nut shown in Figure 44 several turns,
then thread the stop bolt inward several
turns.

5. Loosen the headstock lock lever, rotate the
headstock so that the blade is square to
the vise, then re-tighten the headstock lock
lever.
6. Adjust the stop bolt as needed until it just
touches the cast iron swivel base, as shown
in Figure 44, then snug the jam nut against
the stop block without turning the stop bolt.
7. Repeat this procedure for the 45°R and 45°L
stops using a square and a 45° triangle (or
an adjustable square), as shown in Figure
45.
