2. Place a combination square (2) on the miter table (3)
with the ruler against the table and heel of the square
against the saw blade.
3. If the blade is not 90° square with the miter table, loosen
the bevel locking handle (1), tilt the cutting head to the
left, loosen the jamb nut (4) and turn the bevel angle
adjustment bolt (5) in or out with a 10 mm wrench until
the blade is square with the table. Once alignment is

2. Loosen the bevel locking handle (4) and tilt the cutting
arm completely to the left. (Fig. Q)
3. Using a combination square, check to see if the blade
is 45° to the table.
4. If the blade is not at 45° to the miter table, tilt the cutting
arm to zero degree, loosen the lock nut (5) and turn the
bolt (6) in or out accordingly.
5. Tilt the cutting arm back to the left and recheck alignment.

MITER SCALE (FIG. R)
3
The sliding compound miter saw scale can be easily read,
showing miter angles from 0° to 50° to the left, and 0° to 50°
to the right. The miter saw table has positive stops at most
common angle settings at 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°, and 45°. These
positive stops position the blade at the desired angle quickly
and accurately. Follow the process below for quickest and
most accurate adjustments.
