ROTATING
THE TABLE FOR MITER CUTTING
1.
The compound
miter saw will cut any angle from a straight 0 ° cut to 48 ° right and left. To adjust, place locking knob (A) in the
unlocked position as shown in Fig. 11. Then push down on lock lever (B) while turning the table to the desired position. After
moving the saw, place knob (A) in the locked position by twisting it clockwise until it stops.
2.
This machine is equipped with positive stops at the 0° cut-oft position and at the 15 °, 22.5 °, 31.62 °, and 45 ° left and right
positions.
3.
The center line (C) Fig. 12 on the cursor indicates the actual angle of cut. Each scale line (L) represents 1°. When the center line
(C) is moved from one line to the next on the scale, the angle of the cut is changed by 1°.
4.
The pointer is provided with two additional lines (D) and (E) Fig. 12. This allows movement
of the control arm by exactly 1/2 °.
For example, assume that the center line (C) is pointing to the 10 ° mark on the scale, as indicated, and the desired angle of cut
is 1/2 ° to the right. Move the control arm until the right line (E) lines up with the next line on the scale. The angle of cut will then
be changed 1/2 ° to the right. If you change the angle of cut 1/2 ° to the left, use the left line (D) in the same manner.

SOURCE
To adjust
the sliding
fit between
the movable
table
and
the base, turn the nut (A) Fig. 13 clockwise
to tighten the
fit (counter-clockwise
to loosen
the fit). This adjustment
should not be so tight that it restricts the rotating movement
of the table, or so loose that it affects the accuracy
of the
saw.
ADJUSTING

MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE
1.
Slide table into 0 degrees miter detent as shown in Fig. 14. Do
not lock the miter knob. If the miter cursor needs adjusting,
loosen screw (G) and slide cursor (F) so that the red line
shows 0 degrees.
2.
Raise blade and make sure left fence is parallel with the
right. To do this, place one end of a framing square (A) Fig.
15 against the front of the right fence (B) and the other end
against the left fence base (C). Use the supplied wrench to
loosen left fence base mounting screws (D) and adjust the left
fence base parallel to 1heright fence.
3.
Lower the blade. Place a framing square (E) Fig 16 on the
table against the blade and nght fence (D). If the body of the
blade is not perpendicular to the fence then the entire miter
scale (J)Fig. 14 can also be slightly adjusted by loosening
4,
four screws, one of which is shown at (H) Fig. 14 and mitedng the saw into the correct position. It is important that any adjustment
occur with the miter unlocked, and with the saw in the zero miter detent. Retighten the four screws once the blade has been adjusted
perpendicular to the left fence.
Verify the saw is square by placing framing square on the left fence and the body of the blade. If this is not square, return to step 1.
