WARNING
To avoid injury from an accidental start,
make sure the switch is in the OFF position and the
plug is not connected to the power source outlet.
45° Bevel Stop Adjustment (Fig. V)
1. Set the miter angle to zero degree.
2. Loosen the bevel lock handle (1) and tilt the cutting arm
completely to the left.
3. Using a combination square, check to see if the blade is
45° to the table.
4. If the blade is not at 45° to the miter table, tilt the cutting
arm to zero degree, loosen the lock nut (2) and turn the
bolt (3) in or out accordingly with an adjustable wrench.
5. Tilt the cutting arm back to the left and recheck alignment.
6. Repeat above steps until the blade is 45° to the table.
Once alignment is achieved, tighten the lock nut (2)
to secure the bolt (3).
MITER SCALE (FIG. W)
The miter saw scale can be easily read, showing miter angles
from 0° to 50° to the left, and 0° to 60° to the right. The miter
saw table has positive stops at most common angle settings
at 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°, 45° right & left, and 60° right. These
positive stops position the blade at the desired angle quickly
and accurately. Follow the process below for quickest and
most accurate adjustments.
Miter Angles Adjustment:
1. Unlock the table by turning the miter handle (1)
counterclockwise.

2. Move the turntable while lifting up on the positive stop
lock lever (2) to align the miter scale pointer (3) to the
desired degree measurement.
3. If the desired angle is one of the ten positive stops, release
the positive stop lock lever (2), making sure the lever
snaps into position, and then secure by tightening the
miter handle (1).
4. If the miter angle desired is not one of the ten positive
stops, simply lock the miter table into desired angle
position by turning the miter handle (1) in the clockwise
direction.
Miter Angle Pointer Adjustment:
1. Move the table to the 0° positive stop.
2. Loosen the screw (4) that holds the pointer (3) with a
Phillips screwdriver.
3. Adjust the pointer (3) to the 0° mark and retighten
the screw.
ADJUSTING FENCE SQUARENESS (FIG. X)
1. Loosen the four fence locking bolts (1).
2. Lower the cutting arm and lock in position.
3. Using a square (3), lay the heel of the square against the
blade and the ruler against the fence (2) as shown.
4. Adjust the fence 90° to the blade and tighten the four
fence locking bolts (1).
NOTE: If the saw has not been used recently, recheck
blade squareness to the fence and readjust if needed.
5. After fence has been aligned, using a scrap piece of wood,
make a cut at 90° then check squareness on the piece.
Readjust if necessary.
