ADJUSTING FENCE SQUARENESS (FIG. R)
1.Loosen the three fence locking bolts
(1).
2.Lower the cutting arm and lock in position.
3.Using a square (3), lay the heel of the square against the blade and the ruler against the fence (2) as shown.
4.Adjust the fence 90° to the blade and tighten the four fence locking bolts.
CAUTION: If the saw has not been used recently, recheck blade squareness to the fence and readjust if needed.
5.After fence has been aligned, using a scrap piece of wood, make a cut at 90o then check squareness on the piece. Readjust if necessary.

SETTING CUTTING DEPTH (FIG. S)
The depth of cut can be preset for even and repetitive shallow cuts.
1.Adjust the cutting head down (See CUTTING HEAD section) until the teeth of the blade are at the desired depth.
2.While holding the upper arm in that position, turn the stop knob (1) until it touches the stop plate (2).
3.Recheck the blade depth by moving the cutting head front to back through the full motion of a typical cut along the control arm.

ADJUSTING CUTTING DEPTH (FIG. S)
The maximum depth travel of the cutting head was set at the factory. Check to see that the blade does not extend more than 1/4 in. below the table insert, and does not touch the control arm throat or any part of the base or table. If the maximum depth needs readjusting:
1.Loosen the stop knob (1) while moving the cutting head down until the blade extends just 1/4 in. below the table insert.
2.Adjust the stop knob (1) to touch the stop plate (2).
3.Recheck the blade depth by moving the cutting head front to back through the full motion of a cut along the control arm. If the blade touches the inside of the control arm, readjust the setting.
