Swivel Lock
The swivel lock is a friction lock that
prevents play between the casting and

2. Remove screw and nut from swivel
lock knob.

tains wrench used to make this adjustment.
Separate wrench from lever by turning
wrench a few degrees counter-clockwise
to release tab.
4. Position wrench across corners of
square nut and move wrench to line up

move blade carriage to anon-indexed
position, and lock swivel lock. Try to
move blade carriage by hand. If you can,
further tighten square nut.

rip position. If carriage does not "snap"
securely into pre-set position, loosen
