ADJUSTMENTS
ADJUSTING FENCE SQUARENESS (FIG. 11)
1. Loosen the four fence locking bolts (1).
2. Using a square, lay the heel of the square against the blade,
and the ruler against the fence (2) as shown.
3. Adjust the fence to be 90° to the blade and tighten the four
fence locking screws.
CAUTION: If the saw has not been used recently, recheck blade
squareness to the fence and readjust if needed.
Fig. 11
After fence has been aligned,
using a scrap piece of wood make a cut at 90
o
then check
squareness on this piece. Readjust if necessary.
MITER SCALE (FIG. 12)
The miter scale assists the user in setting the desired miter angles
from 47
°
left to 47
°
right. The miter saw table has nine of the
most common angle settings with positive stops (3) at 0
o
, 15
o
,
22.5
o
, 31.6
o
and 45
o
. These positive stops position the blade at
the desired angle quickly and accurately.
To Adjust Miter Angles:
1. Unlock the miter table by turning the miter handle (1)
counterclockwise.
2. While holding the positive-stop locking lever (2) down,
grasp the miter handle and rotate the miter table left or right
to the desired angle.
3. If the desired angle is one of the nine positive stops, release
the positive-stop locking lever making sure the lever snaps
into position.
4. If the miter angle desired is not one of the nine positive
stops, simply lock the miter table into position by turning
the miter handle in the clockwise direction.
Miter Angle Pointer Adjustment :
1. Position the miter table at zero degrees (3).
2. Loosen the pointer screw (4) and adjust the indicator to the
0
°
mark on the miter scale & retighten the screw.

CUTTING HEAD DOWNWARD TRAVEL ADJUSTMENT
(FIG. 13)
CAUTION!
To avoid injury from an accidental start, make sure the
switch is in the OFF position and the plug is not connected to
the power source outlet.
Before each cutting operation, check the position of the blade to
make sure it does not contact any metal surface. If the blade
contacts any metal surface, the depth of travel on the upper arm
assembly must be adjusted.
1. Lower the blade as far as possible.
2. Loosen the locknut (1).
3. Turn the adjustment bolt (2) out (counterclockwise) to
decrease the cutting depth or in (clockwise) to increase the
cutting depth.
4. Rotate the blade manually to check for contact.
5. Repeat until adjusted properly, and tighten the locknut to
secure the adjustment bolt into position.

Bevel adjustment (Fig. 14)
1. Loosen bevel lock knob (1) and tilt the cutting arm
completely to the right. Tighten the bevel lock knob.
2. Place a combination square (2) on the miter table with the
ruler against the table and the heel of the square against the
saw blade.
3. If the blade is not 90
°
square with the miter table, loosen the
bevel lock knob, tilt the cutting head to the left, loosen the
locknut (4), turn the bevel angle adjustment bolt (3) in or out
until the blade is square with the table.
4. Tilt the cutting arm to back to the right at 90
°
bevel and
recheck for alignment.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 if further adjustment is needed.
