On each side of the laser are two Phillips head screws (2) which, when loosened, allow movement to the left and
right. Beware that small adjustments can yield dramatic changes in the laser's path. With patience and practice
you'll be able to place the laser line in the ideal position for your style of blade to cut line alignment.
DEPTH OF CUT ADJUSTMENT (FIG 12)
wArning:
Accidental saw start-up could result in serious personal injury.
note:
Your Miter Saw should come adjusted properly for depth of cut while using the factory-installed
blade for normal operation.
The downward travel or depth of cut, of the saw blade can be controlled to prevent contact with the metal
surfaces of the miter saw, to insure the blade completely cuts through the workpiece, and permit depth of cut
settings for special operations.
To Adjust The Miter Saw Blade's Cutting Depth
:
note
This is factory set and usually does not require adjusting. (This saw may not come with the necessary
tools for the following procedure.)
1. Locate the cutting depth adjustment bolt (1+2) assembly on the saw arm and on the right side of the dust
port.
2. If the saw arm is locked in the down position, release it by pulling the saw arm lock knob out.
3. Loosen the jamb nut (2) counter-clockwise several turns. using the 5 mm Allen wrench , loosen or tighten to
adjust the stop bolt (1). Clockwise rotation will raise the depth of cut; counterclockwise rotation will lower the
depth of cut.
4. As you lower the saw blade, rotate the blade to be sure it
does not contact the machine's metal surfaces and will allow
through cutting of work pieces resting against the fence.
5. Re-tighten the jamb nut while holding the adjustment bolt in
place.
6. Before each use of the miter saw, with the saw unplugged,
lower the blade and rotate it by hand to confirm the blade
does not contact the miter saw surfaces
SQUARING THE SAW BLADE TO THE
FENCE (FIG 13, 14)
wArning:
switched off and unplugged from the power source
before performing any work on the tool. Failure to
unplug the saw may result in accidental start-up,
causing possible serious personal injury.
1. unplug the miter saw.
2. Loosen the miter lock handle. Rotate the miter table and move
to 0° miter stop position.
(note:
miter scale. If not, loosen the miter pointer screw, adjust
the pointer to point accurately to 0° scale mark, tighten the
pointer screw.)
3. Tighten the miter lock handle securely.
4. Pull the saw head down completely and move the arm release
knob into the transport position, locking the blade and arm in
the down position.
5. Lay a small framing square (3) or tri-square on the miter table.
Place one leg of the square against the fence (2) and slide the
other leg of the square against a flat part of the saw blade(1).
(Be sure the square contacts the flat part of the saw blade and
not the blade teeth.)
