Adjustment Procedure
CALIBRATING MITER DETENT
SYSTEM
1. Engage the miter detent at the 0° posi-
tion. Loosen the miter lock knob 1/2
turn.
2. Look for four round holes in the miter
scale plate. In each hole is a screw 40.
Use the small end of the 6/4mm hex key
or a 4mm hex key to loosen all four
screws 1 to 2 turns. This will loosen the
miter detent plate 16 (see Fig. 15).
3. Lock saw down using the head assembly
lock pin (item 43 – page 12).
4. Hold one side of a 90° combination
square against the fence and rotate the
table (and detent plate) until the side of
the saw blade is in full contact with the
other side of the square (Fig. 16).
5. Tighten all four screws – loosen and
reset the miter scale pointer to the “0”
position.
MITER SCALE POINTER
ADJUSTMENT
1. Rotate table to 0° position and lock in
place.
2. Raise the head assembly to the full UP
position.
3. Loosen the pointer adjust screw that
holds the miter scale pointer in place
(see Fig. 17).
4. Position the pointer to align with the 0°
line. Tighten the screw.
Kerf Insert Adjustment
The kerf inserts should be adjusted close to
the blade, but without touching the blade,
to avoid tear-out on the bottom of the work-
piece.
1. Hold the saw head assembly down and
push in the head assembly lock pin (item
43 – page 12) to keep the saw in the
DOWN position.
2. Loosen the six kerf screws using the sup-
plied 6/4mm hex key (Fig. 18).
3. Adjust the kerf inserts as close to the
blade (teeth) as possible without touch-
ing the blade.
4. Tighten the kerf screws.
NOTE: At extreme bevel angles, the saw
blade may slightly cut into kerf insert.
