accurate (Fig. 46).
19. If the cut is not square, repeat steps 1-18 to set the
rotating mitre table (24) square with the blade (13).
NOTE:

be used to check the angle of the blade (13) to the
rotating mitre table (24) at a 45° bevel angle. The 45°
bevel adjustment screw (37) (Fig. 47) is located directly
above the 0°, adjustment screw. A 10mm ring spanner is
not required for the 45° bevel angle adjustment screw as
it is spring loaded.
