ADJUSTINGTHEMITERGAGE
See Figure 521
The miter gage is used in making cross cuts in the
workpiece. To use the miter gage at an angle other
than 0", loosen both lock knobs and pull out the stop
pin. Move the miter gage rod to the desired angle.
_I= WARNING: Make sure the switch is off, the
switch key is removed and the plug is not in the
outlet. Omission of these steps could allow
accidental starting, resulting in serious injury.
To check for alignment, set the miter gage at 0° and
plus or minus 45" by pulling the miter gage stop
pin. Adjust the stop screws, if needed.
Note: The miter gage provides close accuracy in
angled cuts. For very close tolerances, test cuts
are recommended.
Loosen the lock nut of the 0° stop screw at the stop
pin with an 8 mm wrench.
Place a 90° square against the miter gage rod and
the miter gage base.
If the rod is not square, loosen both lock knobs on
the top of the miter gage, adjust the rod, and
tighten the lock knobs.
Adjust the 0° stop screw until it rests against the
stop pin. Adjust the plus and minus 45" stop screws
using a 45" triangle and the steps above.
Push the quick release to quickly move the hold
down clamp onto the wood you are about to cut. To
prevent the use of the quick release roll the quick
release stop around to the top of the quick release.
This prevents the hold down clamp from dropping
on your workpiece:
