ASSEMBLY SQUARING THE SAW TABLE TO THE BLADE See Figure 7 - 8.  Loosen the drop foot lock knob and move drop foot rod all the way up. Retighten drop foot lock knob.  Loosen the table lock knob to tilt the saw table until it is approximately perpendicular or at right angle to the blade.  Place a small square on the saw table next to the blade.  Loosen the screw holding the scale indicator. Move indicator to the 0° mark and securely tighten screw. Remember, the bevel scale is a convenient guide but should not be relied upon for precision. Make practice cuts on scrap material to determine if your angle settings are correct.  Adjust the drop foot to desired position and securely retighten the drop foot lock knob. SETTING THE TABLE FOR HORIZONTAL OR BEVEL CUTTING See Figure 7 - 8. A bevel scale is located under the saw table as a convenient guide for setting the approximate saw table angle for bevel cutting. When greater precision is required, make practice cuts on scrap material and adjust the saw table as necessary for your requirements. NOTE: When cutting at angles, the drop foot should be tilted so it is parallel to the saw table and rests flat against the workpiece. To tilt the drop foot, loosen phillips screw, tilt drop foot to the proper angle, then retighten screw.  Loosen the drop foot lock knob.  Center the drop foot around the saw blade to the desired position.  Tighten the drop foot lock knob.
