MITER GAGE OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT

The miter gage is equipped with adjustable index stops at 90, 75, 60,45 and 30 degrees.

To rotate the miter gage, loosen lock knob (A) Fig. 40, push the thumb lever (B) down and move the body of the miter gage (C) to the desired angle.

The miter gage is equipped with a plate (D) Fig.41 which fits into the T-Slot groove (E) in the table. This allows the miter gage to be pulled off the front edge of the table without falling. This allows for a longer cut-off capacity in front of the blade.
