RIP FENCE INDICATOR ADJUSTMENT (FIG. P)
1. The rip fence indicator (6) points to the
measurement scale (8). The scale shows the
distance between the fence and the blade.
2. Measure the actual distance with a rule. If there is
a difference between the measurement and the
indicator, adjust the indicator (6).
3. Loosen the screw (7) and slide the indicator to the
correct measurement on the scale. Tighten the
screw and re-measure with the rule.
To avoid injury from an accidental start, make sure
the switch is in the OFF position and the plug is not
connected to the power source outlet.
ADJUSTING THE 90° AND 45° POSITIVE STOPS
(FIG.Q-I, Q-2, Q-3)
Your saw has positive stops that will quickly position
the saw blade at 90° to the table. Make adjustments
only if necessary.
90 ° Stop
1. Disconnect the saw from the power source.
2. Turn the blade elevation handwheel and raise
the blade to the maximum elevation.
3. Loosen the blade bevel lock knob (2) and move
the blade to the maximum vertical position, then
tighten the lock knob (2).
4. Place a combination square on the table and
against the blade (1) to determine if the blade is
90 ° to the table. (Fig. Q-2)
5. If the blade is not 90 ° to the table, loosen the two
set screws (4), located on the collar (5)
underneath the table saw, (Fig. Q-3) with the
hex key, and back off the collar..
6. Loosen the bevel lock knob. Turn the blade
tilting handwheel to move the blade until it is 90°
to the table.
7. Adjust the collar (5) so it contacts the bracket (3)
when the blade is 90° to the table. Tighten the
two set screws (4) (Fig.Q-3).
Fig. Q-1
45° Stop
1. With the blade in the upright 90° position, loosen
the bevel lock knob and move the blade to the
45 ° position as far as it will go.
2. Place the combination square on the table as
shown in (Fig.Q-2) to check if the blade is 45 ° to
the table.
3. If the blade is not 45° to the table, loosen the two
set screws (4), located on the collar (5)
underneath the table saw, (Fig. Q-3) with the hex
key, and back off the collar.
4. Tighten the bevel lock knob & secure the screw
(4) until resistance is felt. Do not overtighten.
BLADE TILT POINTER
1. When the blade is positioned at 90°, adjust the
blade tilt pointer to read 0° on the scale.
2. Loosen the mounting screw, position pointer over
0° and tighten the screw.
NOTE: Make a trial cut on scrap wood before
making critical cuts. Measure for exactness.
