Calibrating the Miter Table Indicator

After checking or adjusting the fence to 
confirm that it is at 90º to the Blade, check the 
accuracy of the Miter Table Angle Indicator.

1.  Loosen the screw holding the 

Angle Indicator in place.

2.  Rotate it until the pointer is exactly on 90º.

3.  Retighten the screw. 

Calibrating the Bevel Angle

For making accurate cuts, the Saw Blade must 
be adjusted to be exactly vertical to the Table.

1.  To check the angle, have the blade assembly 

in its normal upright position. Make a cut on a 
piece of flat sided, fairly thick scrap material.

2.  Check the cut with an accurate square. 

The cut should be at exactly 90º.

3.  Angle can also be checked by rotating one cut-off 

piece 180º and holding the cut ends together. 
If the cut is not exactly vertical, 
the two pieces will form a slight angle.

4.  If necessary, the bevel angle can be corrected 

by adjusting the Bevel Adjustment Screw on 
the right side under the Bevel Locking Lever. 

5.  Once the bevel angle is adjusted, adjust the Bevel 

Angle Indicator to read 0º when the Saw Blade is 
in the vertical position. Loosen the screw holding 
the Indicator in place, adjust it to be exactly 
over the 0º mark, then retighten the screw. 

Adjusting or Replacing the Kerf Board

If the Kerf Board becomes damaged it must be replaced. 

1.  Remove the four screws holding 

the Kerf Board in place. 

2.  Install a new Kerf Board. Replace the four 

screws and tighten them slightly.

To adjust the Kerf Board:

1.  Lower the Saw Blade and lock it 

down with the Locking Pin.

2.  Adjust the Kerf Board so the right side of the 

Blade slightly clears the edge of the Kerf Board.

3.  Loosen the Bevel Lock and set 

the Bevel Angle at 45º left.

4.  Ensure that the left side of the 

Blade clears the Kerf Board.

5.  Tighten the four screws holding 

the Kerf Board in place.
