ADJUSTING MITER GAUGE
NOTE: The graduations are manufactured to very close
tolerances which provide suitable accuracy for average
woodworking. In some cases where extreme accuracy
is required, make a trial cut and then recheck it. If
necessary, the Miter Gauge head can then be swiveled
slightly to compensate and then locked.
The HEAD should be SQUARE (90 °) with the bar when
the pointer points to "0".
To check for squareness, place an accurate square on
the Miter Gauge. If the head is NOT SQUARE with the
bar:
1. Loose the lock handle.
2. Position the head square with the bar, tighten the
handle.
3. Loosen the screw and adjust the pointer, so it points
to zero.
MOUNTING SAW TO BENCH OR LEGS
If you mount the saw on a bench, make sure that there
is an opening in the top of the bench the same size as the
opening in the bottom of the saw so that the sawdust can
drop through.
