_k WARNING: Be sure the saw is unplugged before performingthese adjustments. Accidental
•First check the framing square by fitting one side against the back edge of the table. Lightlydraw a line on the table along the edge of the square in the middle of the table. Flip the square over. If the edge still matches the line with no gaps or over- tape, the square is true.
