RIP FENCE INDICATOR ADJUSTMENT
(FIG. Q)
1. The rip fence indicator (6) points to the
measurement scale (8). The scale shows the
distance from the side of the fence to nearest side
of the blade.
2. Measure the actual distance with a rule. If there is
a difference between the measurement and the
indicator, adjust the indicator (6).
3. Loosen the screw (7) and slide the indicator to the
correct measurement on the scale. Tighten the
screw and remeasure with the rule.

To avoid injury from an accidental start, make sure
the switch is in the OFF position and the plug is not
connected to the power source outlet.
ADJUSTING THE 90 ° AND 45" POSITIVE STOPS
(FIG.Q-I, Q-2, Q-3)
Your saw has positive stops that will quickly position
the saw blade at 90 ° to the table. Make adjustments
only if necessary.
90 ° Stop
1.
Disconnect the saw from the power source.
2.
Turn the blade elevation handwheel and raise
the blade to the maximum elevation.
3.
Loosen the blade bevel lock handle (2) and
move the blade to the maximum vertical position.
Tighten the lock handle (2).
4.
Place a combination square on the table and
against the blade (t)to determine if the blade is
90 ° to the table. (Fig. Q-2)
5.
If the blade is not 90 ° to the table, loosen the two
set screws (4), located on the bottom of the table
saw, (Fig. Q-3) with the hex key, and back off
the collar..
6.
Loosen the bevel lock knob. Turn the blade
tilting handwheel to move the blade until it is 90 °
