ADJUSTMENTS If blade is not 45º to the table:  Loosen 45º stop screw until it is even with the top of the saw table using a hex key.  Release the bevel locking lever and position the bevel adjusting handwheel until blade is 45º to the table. Lock the bevel locking lever.  Screw the 45º stop screw until the saw blade starts to move. Check again for squareness and readjust if needed.  Check bevel indicator.  If indicator is not pointing to the 45º mark on the bevel scale, loosen the indicator adjusting screw and adjust indicator.  Retighten screw. TO ADJUST THE MITER GAUGE See Figures 61 - 62. You can set the miter gauge at 0º and plus or minus 45º with the miter gauge stop pin and adjustable stop screws. NOTE: The miter gauge provides close accuracy in angled cuts. For very close tolerances, test cuts are recommended. To adjust stop screws:  Loosen the lock knob and pull out on stop pin to rotate miter gauge base past stop screws.  Loosen the lock nut of the 0º stop screw at the stop pin with a wrench.  Place a 90º square against the miter gauge rod and the miter gauge base.  If the rod is not square, loosen the lock knob, adjust the rod, and retighten the knob.  Adjust the stop screw until it rests against the stop pin and tighten lock nut. To adjust miter gauge base: The miter gauge base should swivel smoothly on the bar after the knob is loosened. If adjustment is required:  Loosen the lock knob.  Loosen set screw.  If the base is too loose, turn the phillips head screw in a clockwise direction. If the base is too tight, turn the flat head screw in a counterclockwise direction.  Retighten set screw. 45˚ STOP SCREW MITER GAUGE ROD 0° ADJUSTABLE STOP SCREW Fig. 60 LOCK KNOB MITER GAUGE BASE 45° ADJUSTABLE STOP SCREW LOCK NUT FLAT HEAD SCREW STOP PIN Fig. 61 SET SCREW 40 Fig. 62
