Adjustments - Craftsman 315.212400 Owner's Manual

PIVOT ADJUSTMENTS
Note: These adjustments were made at the factory
and normally do not require readjustment.
TRAVEL PIVOT ADJUSTMENT
The saw arm should rise completely to the up
position by itself.
If the saw arm does not raise by itself or if there is
play in the pivot joints, have saw repaired by a
qualified service technician at your nearest Sears
store to avoid risk of personal injury.
DEPTH STOP
The depth stop limits the blade's downward travel. It
allows the blade to go below the miter table enough to
maintain full cutting capacities.
The depth stop is built in to provide maximum cutting
capacity for the 10 in. saw blade provided with your
saw.
