the left.
45° Bevel Stop Override (Fig. M)
There are two bevel stop override levers, one on each side of the saw. To bevel the saw, left or
right, past 45°, push the 45° bevel override lever
53
rearward. When in the rearward position,
the saw can bevel past these stops. When the 45° stops are needed, pull the 45° bevel override
lever forward.
Crown Bevel Pawls (Fig. M)
nOTE:
Crown bevel cuts can be made using hard stops for a fast and accurate setting at 30°
and 33.9°.
When cutting crown molding laying flat, your saw is equipped to accurately and rapidly set
a crown stop, left or right (refer to
Instructions for Cutting Crown Molding Laying Flat and
Using the Compound Features
).
The 30° crown bevel pawl
55
can be rotated to contact the crown adjustment screw
52
.
To reverse the 30° crown bevel pawl to 33.9°, remove the retaining screw
57
, the 22.5° bevel
pawl
54
and the 30° crown bevel pawl
55
. Flip the 30° crown bevel pawl
55
so the 33.9°
text is facing up. Reattach the retaining screw
57
to secure the 22.5° bevel pawl and the 33.9°
crown bevel pawl. The accuracy setting will not be affected.
22.5° Bevel Pawls (Fig. M)
Your saw is equipped to rapidly and accurately set a 22.5° bevel, left or right. The 22.5° bevel
pawl
54
can be rotated to contact the crown adjustment screw
52
.
Rail Lock Knob (Fig. A)
The rail lock knob
23
allows you to lock the saw head firmly to keep it from sliding on the
rails
22
. This is necessary when making certain cuts or when transporting the saw.
Grooving Stop (Fig. A)
The grooving stop
34
allows the depth of cut of the blade to be limited. The stop is useful
for applications such as grooving and tall vertical cuts. Rotate the grooving stop forward
and adjust the depth adjustment screw
33
to set the desired depth of cut. To secure the
adjustment, tighten the wing nut
32
. Rotating the grooving stop to the rear of the saw will
bypass the grooving stop feature. If the depth adjustment screw is too tight to loosen by hand,
the provided wrench
26
can be used to loosen the screw.
Lock Down Pin (Fig. A)
WARNING:
The lock down pin should be used only when carrying or storing the saw.
NEVER use the lock down pin for any cutting operation.
To lock the saw head in the down position, push the saw head down, push the lock down
pin
18
in and release the saw head. This will hold the saw head safely down for moving the
saw from place to place. To release, press the saw head down and pull the pin out.
Adjustment
Your mitre saw is fully and accurately adjusted at the factory at the time of manufacture.
If readjustment due to shipping and handling or any other reason is required, follow the
instructions below to adjust your saw. Once made, these adjustments should remain accurate.
Mitre Scale Adjustment (Fig. L, P)

26
as
necessary so that the blade is at 0° bevel to the table.
Bevel Pointer Adjustment (Fig. M)
If the bevel pointers
17
do not indicate zero, loosen each screw
51
that holds each bevel
pointer in place and move them as necessary. Ensure the 0° bevel is correct and the bevel
pointers are set before adjusting any other bevel angle screws.
Bevel Stop 45° Right and Left Adjustment (Fig. A, M)
To adjust the right 45° bevel stop:
1. Loosen the bevel lock knob
27
and pull the bevel stop override knob
29
to override the
