REMOVING/REINSTALLING THE THROAT
PLATE
See Figure 16 - 17.
WARNING:
If the throat plate is too high or too low, the workpiece
can catch on the uneven edges resulting in binding or
kickback which could result in serious personal injury.
Verify the throat plate is correctly seated. Before turning
on the saw, perform a dry run of the cutting operation to
make sure that no problems will occur when the cut is
made. If the workpiece catches, do not attempt to use
the saw. Contact customer service for assistance.
Lower the blade by turning the height/bevel adjusting
handwheel counterclockwise.
To remove the throat plate, rotate the knob to the unlocked
position. Place your index finger into the hole, lift and pull
the throat plate out toward the front of the saw.
To reinstall the throat plate, rotate the knob to the unlocked
position. Place throat plate back onto the saw and rotate
the knob to the locked position.
NOTE:
The throat plate may move up and down over
time. If necessary, use a Phillips screwdriver to adjust
the screws located under the throat plate until it is level
with the saw table.
