TILTING THE BLADE
The blade bevel handwheel and handwheel lock knob
are located on the left side of the cabinet. To increase
the saw blade bevel, loosen the handwheel lock knob
(A) (counterclockwise) and turn the handwheel (B)
clockwise. When the saw blade is at its desired
degree, tighten the handwheel lock knob (clockwise)
until it is securely tightened. See figure 15-1.
To return the saw blade bevel to zero degrees, loosen
the handwheel lock knob (counterclockwise) and turn
the handwheel counterclockwise. When the saw blade
is back to zero degrees it will come into contact with the
adjustable positive stop which will cause the blade to
stop. Tighten the handwheel lock knob (clockwise) until
it is securely tightened.
To tilt the blade bevel to 45-degrees, loosen the hand-
wheel lock knob (counterclockwise) and turn the hand-
wheel clockwise. When the saw blade is at 45-degrees
it will come into contact with the adjustable positive stop
which will cause the blade to stop. Tighten the hand-
wheel lock knob (clockwise) until it is securely tightened.
ADJUSTING BLADE BEVEL POSITIVE STOPS
3. If the blade will not tilt to 90-degrees, turn (counter-
clockwise) the set screw (C) in the left hand side of
the saw table until the blade can be positioned to
90-degrees. Tighten bevel handwheel lock knob,
located on the left side of the cabinet. This will keep
the blade from further tilting and check that the set
screw is contacting positive stop. See figure 16-1.
4. Once the blade has been tilted to 90-degrees,
tighten bevel handwheel lock knob, located on the
left side of the cabinet. This will keep the blade
from further tilting. Turn the set screw clockwise
until it comes in contact with the positive stop.
