2.Using 10-12 ft. (3-3.7 meters) of stringline, divide the length of the string in half and slide the string into one of the slots or gullets on the backside of the blade, (as viewed standing in front of the pointer). (Item 2, Figure 26) Hold both ends of the string in one hand and pull the string taut. (Item 3) Move your hand from side to side until both strings are touching both sides of the blade.

3. Adjust the pointer rod (Item 5), by loosening the lock knob (Item 4). Move the pointer directly over the middle of the two strings in your hand and tighten the pointer setscrew to lock the pointer in position. Repeat this process for the rear pointer.

4.To raise the front pointer assembly, (Item 1) first pull back and up on the pointer cable. Secure the pointer assembly in the desired raised position by locking the cable between the jaws of the cam cleat.

Raise - Lower Controls

The MQ PS4030 saw uses a 12-volt hydraulic pump and cylinder to raise and lower the saw. The raise-lower function is controlled by the operator through a 3-position toggle switch on the raise- lower control handle located on the operators control panel.
