RIDGID R4113 Operator's Manual page 17

ASSEMBLY
NOTE: Many of the illustrations in this manual show only
portions of the compound miter saw. This is intentional so
that we can clearly show points being made in the illustra-
tions. Never operate the saw without all guards securely
in place and in good operating condition.
SQUARING THE BLADE TO THE FENCE
See Figures 14 - 20.
 Unplug the saw.
 Pull the saw arm all the way down and engage the lock
pin to hold the saw arm in transport position.
 Lift the miter lock lever, then depress and hold the detent
release button to release the miter table.
 Rotate the control arm until the scale indicator is posi-
tioned at 0°.
 Release the detent release button, enaging the positive
stop notch, then push the miter lock lever down to secure
the miter table.
 Loosen bevel lock knob and set saw arm at 0° bevel
(blade set 90° to miter table). Tighten bevel lock knob.
 Lay a square flat on the miter table. Place one leg of the
square against the fence. Slide the other leg of the square
against the flat part of saw blade.
NOTE: Make sure that the square contacts the flat part
of the saw blade, not the blade teeth.
 The edge of the square and the saw blade should be
parallel as shown in figure 14.
 If the front or back edge of the saw blade angles away
from the square as shown in figures 15 and 16, adjust-
ments are needed.
