TO SET THE BLADE AT 0° AND 45°
See Figures 56 - 57.
The angle settings of the saw have been set at the factory
and, unless damaged in shipping, should not require set-
ting during assembly. After extensive use, they may need
to be checked.
Unplug the saw.
Raise the blade.
Remove the blade guard assembly.
If the blade is not perfectly vertical (0°):
Unlock the bevel locking lever.
Loosen the 0° adjustment screw.
Place a combination square beside the blade on the left.
The edge of the square and the saw blade should be
parallel.
NOTE: Make sure that the square contacts the flat part
of the saw blade, not the blade teeth.
Lock the bevel locking lever.
Tighten the adjustment screw. Check again for squareness
and continue to adjust if needed.
If the blade is not an exact 45°:
Unlock the bevel locking lever.
Loosen the 45° adjustment screw.
Place a combination square beside the blade on the left.
The edge of the square and the saw blade should be
parallel.
NOTE: Make sure that the square contacts the flat part
of the saw blade, not the blade teeth.
Lock the bevel locking lever.
Tighten the adjustment screw. Check again for squareness
and continue to adjust if needed.
If needed, adjust the bevel indicator to 45°.
Make a test cut.
The adjustment screws must be below the saw table surface
so the workpiece doesn't catch on uneven edges. If unable
to make this adjustment, take the product to an authorized
service center.
