Alignment for squareness
This tool was carefully adjusted and aligned for squareness of cut at the factory, but rough
handling may have affected the alignment. If your tool is not aligned properly, perform the
following.
Loosen the grip and set the turn base at zero degrees by turning the turn base. Tighten
the grip securely and loosen the hex bolts on the guide fence. Square the side of the
blade with the face of the guide fence using a triangular rule, try-square, etc. by moving
the right side of the guide fence. Then securely tighten the hex bolts on the guide fence in
the order indicated in the figure.
