of the blade teeth with the square. To do so will cause an inaccurate measure ment.)
Loosen the miter lock handle and swing the miter arm until the miter latch locks it at
the 0 miter position. Do not tighten the lock handle. If the saw blade is not exactly
perpendicular to the fence, loosen the four screws that hold the miter scale to the base
and move the scale left or right until the blade is perpendicular to the fence, as measured
with the square. Retighten the four screws. Pay no attention to the reading of the miter
pointer at this time.
