Adjusting The Bevel Stops - Mac allister MSTS1500-A Manual

MSTS1500-A by MacAllister
ADJUSTMENT

Adjusting the bevel stops

This saw has positive stops that will quickly position the saw blade at 90° or 45°
to the working table.
The angle settings of the saw have been set at the factory and, unless damaged
in shipping, should not require setting during assembly. After extensive use, it may
need to be checked.
Make adjustments only if necessary.
> Unplug the saw.
> Remove the blade guard.
> Raise the blade to the maximum height by turning the high adjusting
handle counterclockwise.
> Using a square [67], set the blade [23] to exactly 0°. (Fig. 20)
> If the blade stops bevelling before it gets to 90°, using the 4mm hex key (not
supplied) to loosen the 90° stop set screw [68] (located at the left of the bevel
track on the front), and then adjust it to 90°.
> With the blade set at 90°, slowly turn the 90° stop set screw [68] until you feel
resistance. Bevel the blade away from 90° a little, and then back to the stop.
> Re-measure the angle and repeat the stop adjustment as necessary until the
blade stops at 90°.
