Adjusting Vise
4. To adjust each jaw independently, loosen
vise jaw cap screw until vise jaw slides freely
(see
Figure 17).
To adjust vise jaws:
1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!
2. Set cutting angle, as described in Adjusting
Miter Angle on Page 20.
3. Lower saw blade to check vise clearance.
—If saw blade lowers completely without
touching vise jaws, no further adjustments
are necessary.
—If saw blade contacts vise jaws, perform
Steps 4–8 on this page.
NOTICE
Prior to cutting, jaws must be checked for
blade clearance. Failure to do this could
cause blade to contact vise during cut,
resulting in damage to machine.

8. Turn vise handwheel clockwise until vise
jaws clamp workpiece in desired position.
