ADJUSTING MITER SLOT PARALLEL TO BLADE
To reduce the risk of personal injury, turn
unit off and disconnect it from power source before
installing and removing accessories, before adjusting
or when making repairs. An accidental start-up can cause
injury.
The saw table was aligned at the factory. For accuracy,
check the alignment before beginning operation.
1. Place a combination square (ZZ) Fig. 46 on the table
with one edge of the square in the miter gauge slot.
Adjust the square so that the ruler's edge touches the
face of the saw blade at the forward position. Lock the
square.
2. Rotate the saw blade so that the same spot you used
in STEP 1 is in the rear position (Fig. 47) and place
ruler edge on the face of the saw at this spot. Both the
front and rear measure ments should be the same.
3. Then, using a 10 mm hex wrench, loosen the four
screws - one shown at (A1) Fig. 48 - that hold the
table to the saw cabinet.
4. Adjust the front edge of the saw (as shown in Fig. 49).
The pivot point on the rear edge of the saw is shown
in Fig. 49.
5. Move table until the miter slot is parallel with the
blade, according to the method described in STEPS 1
and 2.
6. Once miter slots are parallel to the blade, finger
tighten the four bolts (one shown at (A1) Fig. 48).
Check the parallel one last time and fully tighten the
bolts.
7. Tilt the blade 45° (as shown in Fig. 50), and turn the
saw blade by hand. Ensure that the blade does not
contact the throat plate.
