SQUARING THE SAW BLADE TO THE

FENCE

See Figures 17- 20.

Unplug your saw.

_1, WARNING: Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting causing possible

serious personal injury.

Pull the saw arm all the way down and engage the lock pin to hold the saw arm in transport position.

Lift the miter table clamp.

"Rotate the miter table until the pointer is posi- •tioned at 0 °.

"Push the miter table clamp back down.

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.

Using the 6 mm hex key provided, loosen the socket head screws that secure the mounting bracket to the miter table. See Figure 20.

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.
