90˚ Positive Stop
Your table saw will be easier to use and produce more predictable results if it is adjusted correctly. Next to parallelism, the 90° positive stop is per- haps the most important adjustment point on the saw. To adjust the 90° positive stop bolt:
1.Turn the arbor tilting handwheel (the one on the left side of the saw) until the 90° positive stop limits movement.
2.Check the angle of the blade to the table with a high quality square. Figure 19. If the blade is 90° to the table, you are finished. If the blade is not exactly 90° to the table, proceed to the next steps.
3.Angle the blade toward 45° to allow access to the stop bolt.
4.Locate the stop bolt on the geared trunnion inside the cabinet. Figures 20.

5.Loosen the jam nut and thread the stop bolt in or out not more than a half turn. Figure 21.
6.Tighten the jam nut and tilt the blade back to 90°. Check the angle of the blade with the square.
7.Repeat steps 3-6 as necessary.
