ADJUSTMENTS
TO ADJUST THE MITER LOCK LEVER
See Figures 44 and 45.
In the locked position, the miter lock lever should feel tight
and secure, and considerable effort should be required to
move the miter table. If the miter lock lever feels loose or the
table moves easily when in the locked position, an adjust-
ment to the miter lock lever is required.
To adjust:
Unplug the saw.
Lift the miter lock lever.
With the unit securely resting on a large stable surface,
tilt the unit by lifting up on one side of the base.
Using the 5 mm leg (short leg) of the hex key, loosen the
two socket head cap screws on the underside of the saw
table.
NOTICE:
To keep from losing control of the unit, steady the
base with one hand while loosening the two socket
head cap screws with the other hand.
Locate the tensioning screw.
Using the 5 mm leg (short leg) of the hex key, adjust the
tensioning screw until the proper amount of tension in
the lock lever is attained.
NOTE: It may be neccesary to lock and unlock the miter
lock lever to determine proper tension.
Once all adjustments have been made, tighten the two
socket head cap screws and return the saw to an upright
position and push the miter lock lever down to lock the
miter table in place.
