Aligning Blades
The scoring blade must be aligned with the main blade to ensure satisfactory cutting results.
To align the blades and riving knife:
1.DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!
2.Move the blade tilt to 0° (blade 90° to table), and raise the main blade all the way up.
3.Unlock the scoring blade adjustment using a hex wrench in the adjustment lock socket (Figure 40) and raise the blade to its high- est point using a hex wrench in the vertical adjustment socket.
