Aligning Pivot Arm

Assembly

The pivot arm assembly is aligned at the factory to be precisely 45° from the fence. This setting should never need to be changed or adjusted.

If your cuts are not precisely 45°, do the following before performing this procedure:

•Check the saw blades for warping or bent teeth—replace if necessary (Page 22).

•Make sure the hold-downs firmly clamp the workpiece to the fence before the blades begin the cut (Pages 19 & 20).

•Remove any resin build-up or debris from the table, fence, and fence stop.

To realign the pivot arm assemblies:

1.DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!

2.Raise the front guard up, and remove the inner blade guard to access the pivot arm assemblies and motors (see Figure 45).

assemblies.

Note: It is safer and more convenient to remove the saw blade opposite from the pivot arm assembly that you are working on.

3.Use a 19mm wrench to loosen, but not remove, the front and rear motor base mount- ing bolts.

4.Use a 13mm wrench to loosen the alignment jam nuts on either side of the motor base (see Figure 46).
