Positive Stops

The 45° and 90° positive stops ensure that the blade adjustment stops accurately at both ends of its swing. To adjust the positive stops:

1.Disconnect the saw from its power source.

2.Raise the blade to its maximum height.

3.Turn the tilting handwheel as far as it can go clockwise. Place a square against the blade. See Figure 17.

Figure 17. Checking blade angle.

If the square does not contact the blade evenly, you will need to adjust the positive stop. To adjust the positive stop:

1.Loosen the setscrew as shown in Figure 18.

Figure 18. Zero degree positive stop adjustment.

2.Using the handwheel, adjust the blade tilt until the blade contacts the square evenly.

3.Advance the collar until it makes contact with the bracket (C). Re-tighten the setscrew.

4.Tilt the blades 15° and return it to the 0° position. Re-check with your straight edge.

5.Re-adjust if necessary.

Once you are satisfied with the results, repeat the process for the 45° positive stop. To adjust the 45° positive stop:

1.Tilt the blade to its maximum angle.
