Adjustments - Ryobi P553 Manuel D'utilisation

WARNING:
To prevent accidental starting that could cause serious
personal injury, always remove the battery pack from the
tool when making adjustments.
The compound miter saw has been adjusted at the factory
for making very accurate cuts. However, some of the
components might have been jarred out of alignment during
shipping. Also, over a period of time, readjustment will
probably become necessary due to wear. After unpacking
the saw, check the following adjustments before you begin
using the saw. Make any readjustments that are necessary
and periodically check the parts alignment to make sure that
the saw is cutting accurately.
PIVOT ADJUSTMENTS
NOTE: These adjustments were made at the factory and
normally do not require readjustment.
TRAVEL PIVOT ADJUSTMENT
 The saw arm should rise completely to the up position
by itself.
 If the saw arm does not raise by itself or if there is play
in the pivot joints, have saw repaired by at your nearest
authorized service center.
BEVEL PIVOT ADJUSTMENT
 The compound miter saw should bevel easily by loosening
the bevel lock knob and tilting the saw arm to the left.
 If movement is tight or if there is play in the pivot, have
saw repaired by at your nearest authorized service center.

NOTE: These adjustments were made at the factory and
normally do not require readjustment.
To adjust:
 Remove the battery pack from the tool.
 Loosen the bevel lock knob by turning the knob
counterclockwise.
 Square the blade to the miter table as described in the
Assembly section of this manual.
 If the blade is out of square, secure the lock nut in place
and loosen or tighten the positive stop adjustment screw
using the blade wrench provided.
 Retighten bevel lock knob. Recheck blade-to-table
alignment.
NOTE: The above procedure can be used to check blade
squareness of the saw blade to the miter table at both 0°
and 45° angles.
The saw has two scale indicators, one on the bevel scale and
one on the miter scale. After squaring adjustments have been
made, it may be necessary to loosen the indicator screws
and reset them to zero. See Figures 18. - 19
