SQUARING THE BLADE TO THE MITER TABLE
See Figures 19 - 22.
Unplug the saw.
Pull the saw arm all the way down and engage the lock
pin to hold the saw arm in transport position.
Unlock the miter lock lever.
Rotate the miter table until the pointer aligns with zero
on the miter scale.
Lock the miter lock.
Loosen bevel lock knob and set saw arm at 0
°
bevel (blade
set 90
°
to miter table). Tighten bevel lock knob.
Place a square against the miter table and the flat part
of saw blade.
NOTE:
Make sure that the square contacts the flat part
of the saw blade, not the blade teeth.
Rotate the blade by hand and check the blade-to-table
alignment at several points.
The edge of the square and the saw blade should be
parallel as shown in figure 20.
If the top or bottom of the saw blade angles away from
the square as shown in figures 21 and 22, adjustments
are needed.
Loosen the bevel lock knob.
Adjust positive stop adjustment screw to bring saw blade
into alignment with the square. See
Positive Stop Adjust-
ment
in the
Adjustments
section.
Retighten bevel lock knob. Recheck blade-to-table align-
ment.
NOTE:
The above procedure can be used to check blade
squareness of the saw blade to the miter table at both 0
°
and 45
°
angles.
The saw has two scale indicators, one on the bevel scale
and one on the miter scale. After squaring adjustments have
been made, it may be necessary to loosen the indicator
screws and reset them to zero.
See figure 19.
