only if necessary.
90° Stop
. Disconnect the saw from the power source.
. Turn the blade elevation handwheel and raise the

3. Loosen the blade bevel lock handle and move the
blade () to the maximum vertical position, then
tighten the lock handle. (fig. U)
4. Place a combination square () on the table and
against the blade () to determine if the blade is 90°
to the table. (fig. U)
5. If the blade is not 90° to the table, loosen the two set
screws (4), located on the collar (5) underneath the
table saw with the 3 mm hex key, and back off the
