ASSEMBLY

(continued)

ADJUSTING 90° AND 45° POSITIVE BEVEL STOPS

There are positive stops at each end of the bevel

range. To ensure accurate cuts, the positive stops

must be positioned at exactly at 90° and 45°. The bevel

stops are properly adjusted as shipped. However, for

maximum accuracy, you should check the position

of the stops upon assembly and from time to time to

assure that the settings remain satisfactory. To check

the position of the stops and adjust if necessary, refer

to Figure 14 and do the following.

1. Release the blade tilt lock knob.

2. Rotate the blade tilt handwheel clockwise and tilt the

blade away from, then back toward perpendicular

until the stop is reached the "stop position".

3. Using a carpenter’s square, check the angle of the

blade face to the table, as shown in Figure 20b,

page 20. If the blade is at 90° to the table, proceed

to Step 6.

4. If the blade is not perpendicular to the table, turn

handwheel to slightly tilt the blade away from the

stop position then adjust the 90° stop by rotating

the socket set screw located in the table top

immediately in front of the left side of throat plate

(A). Re-check angle using the carpenter’s square

and continue to adjust until the blade is at 90

degrees when returned to the stop position.

SECURING SAW TO FLOOR

This saw is designed for portability. Do

not attempt to use the saw to cut a

large or cumbersome workpiece without first taking

appropriate steps to protect against tipping the saw.

Examples of appropriate steps include the use of

support tables and/or securing the saw legs to the floor

by replacing the saw feet with connecting bolts or by

attaching the legs to a floor mounted bracket with

u-straps.

5. Rotate the blade tilt wheel counterclockwise until

it rests on the 45° stop. Then repeat Steps 4 and

5, adjusting the 45° stop by rotating the socket set

screw located in front of the right side of the throat

plate. (B)

Failure to comply with the following

warnings may result in serious

personal injury.

•

ALWAYS

make sure your workpiece is not in contact

with the blade before operating the switch to start

the saw. Blade contact could result in kickback or

thrown workpiece.

• To reduce the risk of accidental starting, ALWAYS

make sure the switch is in the off position before

plugging saw into power source.

•

DO NOT

use blades rated less than the speed of

this tool. Failure to heed this warning could result in

serious personal injury.

• Turn unit off and disconnect it from power source

before installing and removing accessories, before

adjusting and when making repairs. An accidental

start-up can cause injury.

• Prior to operating the saw, make sure you are familiar

with its features and controls, and have made all

necessary adjustments as described below.
