To adjust the angled cut from the outrigger, you can use a dial indicator and a large
45° angle. However, this can be done without the 45° Angle. You will need a
workpiece (say, 3ft x 10”, with at least 1 straight edge), an angle ga
uge and a 5mm
Allen key.
The first step would be to move the crosscut fence into the 45°position, from the front
of the outrigger (Figure SS08.1). Lock it down and proceed to make a cut through the
workpiece.

When the cut is made, bring the angle gauge into place along the side previously
against the fence and the new cut side. The offcut can also be used if the angle
gauge does not permit internal 45° measurements of this size. Be sure to use the
same edges (Fenced surface and cut surface). Figure SS08.2 shows the correct
angles to check. Unless you can be certain the two edges are completely parallel, it
is best to check this way so as not to combine errors.
