ADJUSTING 90 AND 45
DEGREE STOPS
Positive stops are provided to quickly and accurately
position the blade at 90 and 45 degrees to the table. To
check and adjust the positive stops, proceed as follows:
1. Raise the saw blade all the way to the top and turn
the blade tilting handwheel clockwise as far as it will go.
2. Using a square, check to see if the blade is 90 degrees
to the table. If an adjustment is necessary, turn the blade
tilting handwheel counterclockwise. Loosen locknut (A)
Fig. 46, and tighten or loosen adjusting screw (B) until
head of screw (B) contacts casting on front trunnion
when the blade is at 90 degrees to the table. Then tight¬
en locknut (A).
3. Check to see if the tilt indicator pointer points to the
zero mark on the scale. Adjust if necessary.
4. Turn the blade tilting handwheel counterclockwise as
far as it will go. Using a square, check to see if the blade
is at 45 degrees to the table. If an adjustment is neces¬
sary, turn the blade tilting handwheel clockwise until the
adjusting screw (D) Fig. 47, and locknut (C) are in view,
in the opening in the front of the saw cabinet, as shown.
Loosen locknut (C) and tighten or loosen adjusting screw
(D) until head of screw (D) contacts casting on front
trunnion when the blade is at 45 degrees to the table.
Then tighten locknut (C).

ADJUSTING TABLE
The saw table has been aligned at the factory so the
miter gage slots are parallel to the saw blade; however,
it is recommended to check the alignment before initial
operation as follows:
1. DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM THE POWER
SOURCE.
2. Place a combination square (A) Fig. 48, on the table
with one edge of the square in the miter gage slot, as
shown, and adjust the square so the rule just touches
one of the teeth on the saw blade at the forward position,
as shown in Fig. 48. Lock the square in this position.
3. Rotate the saw blade so that the same tooth you
used in STEP 2 is in the rear position, as shown in Fig. 49,
and check this distance. Both the front and rear measure¬
ments should be identical.
4. If an adjustment is necessary, loosen the four screws
that hold the table to the saw cabinet.
5. S hift the table until a position is found which brings
the saw blade in the center of the table insert slot, and
parallel to the miter gage slot.
