serious personal injury.

•Lay a framing square flat on the miter table. Place one leg of the square against the fence. Slide the

other leg of the square against the fiat part of saw blade.

Note: Make sure that the square contacts the fiat part of the saw blade, not the blade teeth.

•The edge of the square and the saw blade should be parallel as shown in figure 17.

•If the front or back edge of the saw blade angles away frem the square as shown in figures 18 and 19, adjustments are needed.

•Rotate the mounting bracket left or right until the saw blade is parallel with the square,

•Retighten the screws securely and recheck the blade-to-fence alignment.
