The blade tilt settings for this saw have been set at
the factory and should not require adjustment dur-
ing assembly. However, after prolonged use, or if
the saw does not cut accurate bevels, the settings
should be checked and adjusted accordingly.
Note: The tilt scale reads "0" when the blade is
90° to the table.

2.
Raise blade as high as it will go, then tilt it
toward 90° until it stops and cannot be tilted
any more.
3.
Place a 90° square against table and blade
so it contacts blade evenly from bottom to
top, as shown in Figure 111. Make sure a
blade tooth does not obstruct placement of
square.
— If blade is 90° to table, then no adjust-
ments are necessary. Make sure tilt indi-
cator arrow shown in Figure 112 points
to 0° mark on scale. Adjust position by
loosening Phillips head screws, moving
indicator with your fingers, then tightening
screws.
— If blade is not 90° to table, you will need to
adjust 90° stop nuts. Proceed to Step 4.
