Never operate the saw without all guards securely in place and in good operating condition.

n Release the miter lock plate and securely tighten the miter

n Lay a framing square flat on the miter table. Place one

leg of the square against the fence. Place the other leg

of the square beside the throat plate in the miter table.

The edge of the square and the throat plate in the miter

table should be parallel as shown in figure 21.

in the miter table are not parallel as shown in figures 22

and 23, adjustments are needed.

n Using the blade wrench provided, loosen the socket head

screws securing the fence. Adjust the fence left or right

until the framing square and throat plate are parallel.

n Retighten the screws securely and recheck the fence-to-

table alignment.
