Squaring Crosscut Travel
The blade must travel perpendicular to the
fence along the radial arm in order for cross-
cuts to be accurate. If the radial arm is not
perpendicular to the fence, there will be a
slight miter angle in all crosscuts.
_1_ WARNING" Plugging in the saw dur-
ing alignment can result in your fingers,
hands, or arm being cut off from blade
contact. Do not plug in the saw at any
time during alignment. The saw should
only be plugged in when it is to be used.
1. Place the radial arm in the 0 ° miter
position and lock the miter lock.
2. Raise the radial arm about 2 inches above
the front table.
3. Unlock the bevel lock, and turn the motor
so that the arbor is perpendicular to the table.
