lock pin 1 to lock the head in the raised
position.
2. Place a combination square 2 against the
fence to verify that the two sides of the
fence are aligned. The two sides of the
fence should contact the full length of the
combination square (Figure 10).

the combination square, contact a SKIL
Factory Service Center or Authorized SKIL
Service Station for a fence replacement.

the fence 3 and next to the blade 4 as
illustrated. Locate the square properly so
it does not contact the tooth of saw blade.
The saw blade should contact the full
length of the square (Figure 11).
4. If blade does not contact the square, follow
the fence adjustment procedure.
