PROBLEM
Slight visual misalignment
between the markings on
the Miter Angle Dial and
the markings on the
protractor of the miter
gauge body.
Miter angle does not hold
true when load is applied
to the far end of the fence.
Flip stop joints are too
tight/too loose to fold.
Flip stop comes off the
fence when unlocked or is
not holding position when
fully locked.
The Miter Angle Dial or
Fractional Degree Selector
is too tight/too loose to
turn.

28 Revolution MIter Gauge Owner's Manual
POSSIBLE CAUSE(S)
Play has been adjusted in gear cluster
(see page 25).
The clamping force between Grip and
miter gauge body is insufficient when
pushing extremely heavy, rough sawn
or wet workpieces that cause excess
friction with the saw table.
The bolts holding the joints of the flip
stop together are too tight or too loose.
The bolt that connects the two halves of
the clamp assembly on the underside
of the flip stop has shifted.
The ball plunger has shifted.
SOLUTION
The miter gauge is still accurate and the
misalignment is only visual. Always reference the
nearest tactile feedback location for accurate cuts.
Solution 1: Orient the washer located between the
Grip and the miter gauge body so the side of the
washer with the slight burr is in contact with the
miter gauge body.
Solution 2: Add a small amount of grease to the
threads on the Grip to increase the clamping force
between the Grip and miter gauge body.
Using the included 2mm hex wrench, tighten or
loosen the bolts as needed. Small adjustments will
have a large impact. Take care to not fully remove
the bolts.
With the flip stop placed on the fence, adjust the
bolt in center of the flip stop (in the middle on the
smaller side). Tighten the bolt slowly while the flip
stop is set to its most locked position. Check after
small adjustments that the flip stop is now locked
in place.
Using a 3mm hex wrench (provided) tighten or
loosen the ball plunger that contacts the dial or
knob. The ball plunger can be accessed from the
bottom of the miter bar. Small adjustments make a
big difference.
If the unit has been heavily used, the ball plunger
may be slightly damaged. Replacement ball
plunger is available in the SawStop parts store at
SawStop.com.
