Blade Tilt Stops
The table saw features stop collars that stop the
blade exactly at 45° and 90° when tilting it with
the handwheel.
The stops have been set at the
factory and should require no adjustments, unless
you notice that your cuts are not accurate.
Note: The tilt scale reads "0" when the blade is
90° to the table.

Setting 90° Stop Collar
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Raise blade as high as it will go, then tilt it
toward 0° until it stops and cannot be tilted
any more.
3. Place 90° square against table and blade so
it contacts blade evenly from bottom to top,
as shown in
Figure 112. Make sure blade
tooth does not obstruct placement of square.
— If blade is 90° to table, then adjustments
do not need to be made. Make sure

points to 0° mark on scale. Adjust position
by loosening button head screw, moving
indicator with your fingers, then tightening
screw.

one turn away from trunnion bracket. This will
allow you to square blade in next step.

fectly square to table.

ment you made was correct. When adjust-
ment is satisfactory, close motor door.
