Bevel Stop Adjustments (RECESSED)
NOTE: The miter saw was assembled, aligned, and
inspected before shipment. Alignment should be
checked and any adjustments made to insure accurate

should be at the 0° position. To reset the miter angle,
turn the miter lock knob counter clockwise and press
down the index spring.
2. Lower the power head and lock the stop shaft. Make
sure the bevel index pin is pushed in. Loosen the
bevel lock knob and tilt powerhead until it contacts
the 45 ° stop.
3. Using the square, check for accuracy of the 45 ° stop
(when the blade makes contact with the full length of
the square). Do not measure across the set of a
blade tooth. Repeat this for 0° bevel. If either stop is
inaccurate, follow the alignment procedures: a
through g.
a. Using the allen wrench provided, loosen the
screw which holds the inaccurate bevel index
