Step Five-- Bevel Pivot Adjustment
The compound slide miter saw should bevel easily by
loosening the bevel lock handle and tilting the power
head to the left If movement is tight or if there is loose
ness in the pivot follow the adjustment procedure.
a. Loosen the beveI lock handle
b Turn the hex lock nut wifh a wrench
c Recheck bevel movement of the miter saw
Readjust if necessary
I WARNING: To keep the nut from working it's way I
I
off as you use the saw, at least one thread of the
I
pivot bolt must always stick out past the nut.
Always keep the nut at least that tight.
Step Six -- Cutting Head Pivot Adjustment
The compound slide miter saw should nse completely
to the up position by itself. To check this release the
handle latch and see if the saw will rise by itsolfl If the
saw wiII not rise by itself or if there is play in the pivot
joints the following adfustment _snecessary
a if the saw does not rise by itself loosen the lock
nut on the pivot bolt
b If there is play in the joints slightly tighten the lock
nut on the pivot bolt
c Recheck the saw travel Saw should rise freely to
its up travel stop. Check to see that the saw wilI
rise from al! positions and there is no looseness in
the pivot If saw still won't fully rise, have Sears
Service check and repair it,
WARNING: To keep the nut from working it's way
off as you use the saw, at least on thread of the
pivot bolt must always stick out past the nut.
Always keep the nut at least that tight.

Step Seven -- Depth Stop
The depth stop limits the blade's downward travel. It
allows the blade to go below the work table enough to
maintain full cutting capacities, thereby cutting com-
pletely through the workpiece at the fence, Properly
adjus_ea, the dec,th stop positions the blade !,'4"below
the table.
WARNING: To avoid injury from unexpected
starting or electrical shock, do not plug the saw
in. The power cord must remain unplugged
whenever you are working on the saw.
This too! is factory set to provide maximum cutting
capacity for the 8-1/4" saw blade provided. When the
diameter of the blade has been reduced due to sharp-
enrng _tmay be necessary to adjust the depth stop
When a new blade is installed it is necessary to check
ibe clearance of the blade to the turn table structure
Follow the procedure below.
a. Loosen the two (2) jam nuts on the end of the
depth stop bolt.
b. Loosen the knurled nut at the top of the arm,
c The saw blade is lowered by turning the depth
stop bolt counterclockwise and raised by turning
the bolt clockwise.
d. Lower the blade into the slot of the turn table.
Check blade clearance and maximum cutting dis-
tance (distance from fence where blade enters) to
front of work table slot. Readjust if necessary.
CAUTION: Do not start the compound slide miter
saw without checking for interference between the
blade and the turn table structure. The blade could
be ruined if it cuts into the turn table structure.
I
e. Tighten the large knuded nut at the top of arm.
f. Tighten the two (2) nuts on the end of the depth
stop bolt against the depth stop.
