Adjusting The 90° And 45° Positive Bevel Stops; Securing Saw To Floor - RIDGID R4560 Operator's Manual

ADJUSTING 90° AND 45°
POSITIVE BEVEL STOPS
There are Positive Stops at each end of the Bevel Range. To ensure
accurate cuts, the Positive Stops MUST be positioned at exactly
90° and 45°. The Bevel Stops are properly adjusted as shipped.
However, for maximum accuracy, you should check the position of
the Stops upon assembly and from time to time to assure that the
settings remain satisfactory. To check the position of the Stops and
adjust if necessary, refer to Figure 24 and do the following.
1.
Release the Blade Tilt Lock Knob located on the right side
of the Saw by rotating counter clockwise.
2.
Rotate the Blade Tilt Hand wheel counter clockwise and tilt
the Blade to the 0° position until the Stop is reached.
3.
Using a Combination Square, check the angle of the Blade
Face to the Table, as shown in Figure 27, page 40. Confirm
the blade is at 90° to the table.
4.
If the Blade is not perpendicular to the Table, turn Hand
wheel to slightly tilt the Blade away from the Stop Position
then adjust the 90° Stop by rotating the Socket Set Screw
located in the Table Top immediately in front of the left
side of Throat Plate
Carpenter's Square and continue to adjust until the Blade is
at 90° when returned to the Stop Position.
Rotate the Blade Tilt Wheel counterclockwise until it rests
on the 45° Stop. Then repeat Steps 3 and 4, adjusting the
45° Stop by rotating the Socket Set Screw located in front
of the right side of the Throat Plate

SECURING SAW TO FLOOR

This Saw is designed for mobility. DO NOT
attempt to use the Saw to cut a large or
cumbersome workpiece without first taking appropriate steps to
protect against tipping the Saw. Examples of appropriate steps
include the use of Support Tables and/or securing the Saw Legs
to the floor by replacing the Saw Feet with Connecting Bolts or by
attaching the Legs to a Floor Mounted Bracket with U-Straps.
