ADJUSTMENTS

PIVOT ADJUSTMENTS

NOTE: These adjustments were made at the factory and normally do not require readjustment.

TRAVEL PIVOT ADJUSTMENT

■The saw arm should rise completely to the up position by itself.

■If the saw arm does not raise by itself or if there is play in the pivot joints, have saw repaired at your nearest RYOBI

AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.

DEPTH STOP

The depth stop limits the blade's downward travel. It allows the blade to go below the miter table enough to maintain full cutting capacities. The depth stop positions the blade 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) from the miter table support.

NOTE: The miter table support is located inside miter table.

The depth stop is factory set to provide maximum cutting capacity for the 10 in. (254 mm) saw blade provided with your saw. Therefore, the saw blade provided should never need adjustments.

However, when the diameter of the blade has been reduced due to sharpening, it may be necessary to adjust the depth stop to provide maximum cutting capacity. Also, when a new blade is installed, it is necessary to check the clearance of the blade to the miter table support.

DEPTH STOP ADJUSTMENTS

See Figure 21.

■Unplug your saw.

WARNING:

Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting causing possible serious personal injury.

■To adjust the depth stop use a 17 mm wrench or adjustable wrench and loosen the hex nut at the rear of the miter saw arm.

■Use the 5 mm hex key provided to adjust the depth stop adjustment screw. The saw blade is lowered by turning the screw counterclockwise and raised by turning the screw clockwise.

■Lower the blade into the blade slot of the miter table. Check blade clearance and maximum cutting distance (distance from fence where blade enters) to front of miter table slot.

■Readjust if necessary.

■To prevent the depth stop adjustment screw from turning while tightening the hex nut, carefully hold it with the hex key while tightening the hex nut.
