Adjusting 0° Bevel Stop (Blade 90° to Table)
NOTE: Use a 4mm Hex wrench for the adjustment.
1. Lower head assembly (Fig. 20, 28) and engage head as-
sembly lock pin (Fig. 22, 8).
2. Slide the head assembly (28) completely to the back and
engage the slide rail lock knob (7) by tightening the knob
to the right (clockwise).
3. Rotate the bevel lock knob (34) clockwise to unlock the
head assembly.
4. Make sure that the bevel range selector knob (Fig. 20,
11) is pushed back in position.
• Rotate the 0° bevel adjustment screw (Fig. 23)
clockwise to adjust the head to the right.
• Rotate the 0° bevel adjustment screw (Fig. 23)
counter-clockwise to adjust the head to the left.
5. Follow the procedure in “Checking 0° Bevel Stop Setting”
to check your modifications. If further adjustment is re-
quired, repeat the steps above.
5. Tilt the saw head assembly (28) to the left (counterclock-
wise), then rotate to the right (clockwise) until you feel
the stop in the vertical position. This is where the saw is
currently set for 0° bevel cut.
6. Use a combination square (Fig. 21) to check that the
blade is 90° (square) to the table (22). Place the square’s
ruler edge against the table and slide it to contact the
blade (25) with the vertical side of the square’s head.
7. Check that the saw blade’s plate (25), not the saw blade’s
teeth, is touching the square’s 90° side. If the saw blade’s
plate is not in full contact with the square’s body 90° side,
see “Adjusting 0° Bevel Stop (Blade 90° to Table).”
