The front stabilizing bolt is located on the bottom
of the saw's base near the 0° miter detent slot
(Figure 27). It provides additional support when
making slide cuts.
The stabilizing bolt has been factory set. If it is
loose or needs adjustment, follow these steps:
1. Move the saw so that you have easy access
to the bolt area. Loosen the stabilizing bolt
and the jam nut using a 10mm wrench.
2. Place the saw back on your work table. Un-
screw the stabilizing nut until it contacts the
table.
3. Move the saw again so that you have access
to the bolt area. While holding the head of the
bolt with a 10mm wrench or pliers, use a
10mm open end wrench to fully tighten the
jam nut against the boss in the saw's base.
