ASSEMBLY

SQUARING THE SAW BLADE TO THE FENCE

See Figures 21 - 24.

nRemove the battery pack from the tool.

nPull the saw arm all the way down and engage the lock pin to hold the saw arm in transport position.

nLift the miter table clamp.

nRotate the miter table until the pointer is positioned at 0°.

nPush the miter table clamp back down.

nLay a framing square flat on the miter table. Place one leg of the square against the fence. Slide the other leg of the square against the flat part of the saw blade.

NOTE: Make sure that the square contacts the flat part of the saw blade, not the blade teeth.

nThe edge of the square and the saw blade should be parallel as shown in figure 21.

nIf the front or back edge of the saw blade angles away from the square as shown in figures 22 and 23, adjust- ments are needed.

nUsing the 6 mm hex key provided, loosen the socket head screws that secure the mounting bracket to the miter table. See Figure 24.

nRotate the mounting bracket left or right until the saw blade is parallel with the square.

nRetighten the screws securely and recheck the blade-to- fence alignment.
