Tilt Stop Collars

The table saw features stop collars that halt the blade tilt exactly at 45° and 90°. The stop collars have been set at the factory and should require no adjustments, unless you notice that your cuts are not accurate.

Note: The tilt scale reads "0" when the blade is 90° to the table.

Setting 90° Stop Collar

1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!

2. Raise the blade as high as it will go, then tilt it

toward 0° until it stops and cannot be tilted any

more.

3. Place a 90° square against the table and blade so

it contacts the blade evenly from bottom to top,

as shown in Figure 88. Make sure the square is not

contacting a blade tooth.

Note: If adjustments are made to the 90° stop

collar in the following steps, make sure the tilt

indicator arrow shown in Figure 89 points to the

0° mark on the scale when the table is at 90°

with the blade. If it is not, loosen the button head

screw that secures the indicator, then adjust it and

re-tighten the screw.

— If the blade is 90° to the table, then adjustments

do not need to be made.

— If the blade is not 90° to the table, adjust the 90°

stop collar and proceed to the next step.

4.	Tilt the blade away from 0° by about 5°, so there is
	room for the 90° stop collar to move.
5.	Open the motor access cover, loosen the cap screws
	shown in Figure 90, then thread the 90° stop collar
	one turn away from the trunnion bracket. This will
	allow you to square the blade in the next step.
