Checking Tracking
Ensure a blade is installed and properly tensioned,
and the saw is unplugged before adjusting the track-
ing. To reduce vibration and blade wear, the saw
blade’s gullet should track along the crown (the high-
est point) of the upper wheel (A).

Make minor adjustments to the tracking knob while
rotating the upper wheel by hand (D). The blade’s
tracking position will shift as the wheel rotates, so pay
close attention to the blade’s position to avoid over ad-
justment. Once the blade is tracking correctly, tighten
the tracking knob’s jam nut to lock the blade in place.
Blade tracking should be checked every time a new
blade is installed.
