ADJUSTMENTS
TO CHECK THE ALIGNMENT OF THE RIP FENCE
TO THE BLADE
See Figure 40.
Raise the locking handle to permit the rip fence to be
moved.
Place a framing square beside the blade and move the
rip fence up to the square. Take the dimension on the rip
scale.
Move the fence back and turn the framing square 180°
to check the other side.
If the two dimensions are not the same, loosen the two
screws on the fence and align it.
Retighten the two screws.
Make two or three test cuts on scrap wood. If the cuts
are not true, repeat the process.
WARNING:
Before plugging the saw back in to make test cuts, make
sure the switch is in the
OFF
( ) position and the blade
guard is in place. Failure to do so may result in serious
injury.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.
WARNING:
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side
shields during power tool operation or when blowing
dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
GENERAL
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken, or
destroy plastic which may result in serious personal
injury.
Periodically check all clamps, nuts, bolts, screws, and
belts for tightness and condition. Make sure the throat
plate is in good condition and in position.
Check the blade guard assembly.
To maintain the table surfaces, fence, and rails, periodically
apply paste wax to them and buff to provide smooth
functioning. To prevent work from slipping during cutting
operation,
Do not
wax the working face of the miter
fence.
Protect the blade by cleaning out saw dust from underneath
the table and in the blade teeth. Use a resin solvent on
the blade teeth.
Clean plastic parts only with a soft damp cloth. Do
not
use any aerosol or petroleum solvents.
