90° and 45° Positive Stops Adjustment
Warning: To prevent personal injury, always disconnect the plug from power source before
making any adjustments.
The saw has positive stops that will quickly position the saw blade at 90° or 45° to the table. Make the
following adjustments only if necessary.
NOTE: 90° and 45° blade adjustment screws require a 5 mm Allen wrench (not supplied) and a 10
mm wrench or socket (not supplied) for adjustment. To access the 10 mm jam nut attached to the 90°
and 45° adjustment screws, turn the saw on its left side.
Make sure the saw is secure.
Adjusting the 90° Stop:
1. Raise the blade to the maximum height by turning the hand wheel
(1, Figure 6) counterclockwise.
2. Loosen the blade bevel locking knob (2, Figure 6). Push in the
blade elevation/tilting hand wheel (1, Figure 6) and rotate
clockwise as far as possible.
3. Place a combination square on the table and against the blade to
determine if the blade is at a 90° angle to the table (Figure 7).
4. If the blade is not at a 90° angle to the table, loosen the jam nut
(underneath table) and turn the 90° adjusting socket head screw (3, Figure 8) left to reduce the
angle or right to increase the angle.
Adjusting the 45° Stop:
1. Raise the blade to the maximum height by turning the
control wheel (1, Figure 6) counterclockwise.
2. Loosen the blade lock lever (2, Figure 6). Push in the blade
elevation/tilting control wheel (1, Figure 6) and rotate
counterclockwise as far as possible.
3. Place a combination square on the table and against the
blade to determine if the blade is at a 45° angle to the table
(Figure 7).
4. If the blade is not at a 45° angle to the table, loosen the jam nut (underneath table) turn the 45°
adjusting socket head screw (4, Figure 8) left to reduce the angle or right to increase the angle.
Adjusting the Blade Tilt Indicator:
1. When the blade is positioned at 90°, adjust the blade tilt
pointer to read 0° on the scale.
2. Loosen the holding screw, position pointer over 0° and tighten
the screw.
NOTE: Always make a trial cut on scrap wood when making
critical cuts. Measure for cut precision.
