REMOVING/REPLACING THE THROAT PLATE
See Figure 15.
WARNING:
Thethroatplatemustbebelowthemitertable.Ifthe
throatplateistoohighortoolow,theworkpiececan
catchontheunevenedgesresultinginbindingwhich
couldresultinseriouspersonalinjury.
Neveroperatethesawwithoutathroatplateinstalled.
To remove/replace:
 Unplugthesaw.
 Removethescrewssecuringthethroatplate.
 Liftthethroatplatefromthesaw.
 Toreinstallthethroatplate,aligntheholesinthethroat
platewiththeholesinthesawbase.
 Retighten thescrews,beingcarefulnottoovertighten
whichcancausethethroatplatetoboworbend.
NOTE:Manyoftheillustrationsinthismanualshowonly
portionsofthecompoundmitersaw.Thisisintentionalso
thatwecanclearlyshowpointsbeingmadeintheillustra-
tions.Never operate the saw without all guards securely
in place and in good operating condition.
SQUARING THE BLADE TO THE FENCE
See Figures 16 - 21.
 Unplugthesaw.
 Pullthesawarmallthewaydownandengagethelock
pintoholdthesawarmintransportposition.
 Loosenthemiterlockknobapproximatelyone-halfturn
andpressthedetentreleasebutton.
 Rotatethemitertableuntilthescaleindicatorisposi-
tionedat0°.
 Releasethedetentreleasebutton,engagingthepositive
stopnotch,thentightenthemiterlockknobtosecurethe
mitertable.
 Loosen bevellockknoband set sawarmat0° bevel
(bladeset90°tomitertable).Tightenbevellockknob.
 Layasquareflatonthemitertable.Placeonelegofthe
squareagainstthefence.Slidetheotherlegofthesquare
againsttheflatpartofsawblade.
NOTE: Makesurethatthesquarecontactstheflatpart
ofthesawblade,notthebladeteeth.
 The edgeofthesquare andthesawbladeshould be
parallelasshowninfigure 16.
 Ifthefrontorbackedgeofthesawbladeanglesaway
fromthesquareasshowninfigures 17 - 18,adjustments
areneeded.
