to the index stops can be made by tightening or loosen¬
ing the three adjusting screws (B) Fig. 53.
To rotate the miter gage, loosen lock knob (A) Fig. 53,
and move the body of the miter gage (C), to the desired
angle.

The miter gage is equipped with a special washer (E)
Fig. 54, and flat head screw (F), which are to be assem¬
bled to the end of the miter gage bar.

the miter gage head does not pivot freely, or pivots too
freely, it can be adjusted by loosening set screw (H)
Fig. 54, and turning the screw (G) in or out. Be certain to
tighten screw (H) after adjustment is made.
