Adjustments
Blade Parallel to Miter Gauge
Groove Adjustment
To prevent personal injury, always disconnect the
plug from power source before making any
adjustments.
If the blade is misaligned by more than 1/8", do
not attempt to align or operate the saw. Have a
qualified service technician perform blade alignment.
1.
Move the blade guard out of the way.
2.
Raise the blade to the maximum height by turning the control
wheel
1
counterclockwise (Fig. 11). Push in the control wheel
1
and tilt the the blade to 0°
2
, then lock in place with the
bevel lock knob
3
.
3.
Select a tooth with a “right set” on the end of the blade closest
to you. Mark it with a marker.
4.
Place a combination square base
4
against the left side of the
right miter gauge groove
5
(Fig. 12).
5.
Adjust the rule so it touches the front marked tooth. Lock the
ruler so it holds its position in the square assembly.
6.
Rotate the blade bringing the marked tooth to the rear and
about 1/2" (13 mm) above the table.
7.
Carefully, slide the combination square to the rear until the
ruler touches the marked tooth.
8.
If the ruler touches the marked tooth at the front and rear
positions, no adjustment is necessary.
If the front and rear measurements are not the same, blade is
not parallel to the miter slot. Proceed to steps 9 –19 to perform
the adjustment.
9.
Remove the combination square and stand the saw on its left
side so you can access the eight adjustment nuts
6, 7, 8
(Fig.
13) that secure the axis rod to the table. Make sure the table is
secure.
Place folded pieces of cardboard over the blade to
protect your hands.
10. Us a 10 mm wrench to loosen all eight adjustment nuts about
1/2 turn each.
11. Place the saw in the upright position.
12. Carefully move the blade to the left or right until it is aligned
properly.
13. Check the alignment with the combination square (repeat
steps 4 – 7).
14. Tighten the two front
6
and two rear
7
adjustment nuts. Reach
under the front and rear of the table with a wrench to access
these nuts (Fig. 13).
15. Re-check the alignment. If additional adjustment is required,
loosen only the two front adjustment nuts
6
and repeat steps 4
& 5 until the blade is parallel to the miter slot. Tighten the two
front adjustment nuts
6
(Fig. 13).
16. Stand the saw on its left side and tighten the four center
adjustment nuts
8
(Fig. 13).
17. Place the saw upright and re-check the alignment to make
sure the blade is parallel to the miter slot.
