Squaring the Blade to the Table

8.To keep the miter gage grooves in line, use a flat blade screwdriver against the head of one of the low head capscrews in the miter gage groove to force the table alignment key firmly forward into the notch in the front table.

9.While holding the alignment key into the notch, tighten the other capscrew. Remove the screw- driver and tighten the remaining screw. Check that the miter gage grooves line up.

10.Check the operation of springs and tabs by removing the front table and reinstalling. Remove the table by lifting up on two spring tabs under front edge of the table until springs are free, then pulling forward.

To assure repeatability and accuracy, it is important to square the blade to the table and adjust the 0° position stop. This will guarantee that the blade will

return to the square position after the head has been moved for a bevel cut.

1.Locate the 1/4-20 x 1/2 oval point setscrew and use an 1/8-inch hex "L" wrench to install it in the hole located atthe left front of the rear table. The

setscrew has a lock patch that will make it hard to turn.

2.Slide the upper blade guard to its top most position and tighten knob.

3.Release bevel lock by pulling out bevel lock knob under left front edge of table.

4.Place a combination square on the table against the blade. Adjust the position of the blade to the table by turning the handwheel. When the blade

is flush against the combination square lock the bevel lock knob. Use a 1/8-inch hex "L" wrench

to set the 0° stop. Turn screw until it makes contact with the frame.

5.Unlock bevel lock, bevel the blade, then return to

0° position. Push in bevel lock knob and recheck blade to make sure it is square to the table.

NOTE: The combination square must be "true"
