CUTTING ARM TRAVEL (FIG. R)
Cutting arm pivot adjustment
The up and down pivot movement of the cutting arm
should be free of side-to-side movement for accurate
miter cuts. It should be tight enough to prevent side-
to-side movement while still allowing the arm to move
freely up and down when cutting.
1. If cutting arm (1) is too loose, use a 19 mm wrench to
turn the cuttting arm adjusting nut (2) clockwise.
2. If cutting arm travel is too tight, turn the cutting arm
adjusting nut counterclockwise.
