ALIGNMENT

STEP FOUR: BLADE SQUARE TO TABLE

(BEVELADJUSTMENT) (FIG. 15)

■ Place the saw in the 0° bevel index position and

make sure bevel lock is disengaged.

■ Lower the blade and engage the head hold down.

■ Use a combination square to check that the blade is

90° to the table. If the blade does not contact the full

length of the square:

a. Lift the bevel lock lever.

b. Loosen the two socket head screws that secure

the bevel scale.

c. Grasp the upper metal guard and move the

powerhead left or right until the blade makes full

contact with the length of the square.

d. Securely tighten two socket head screws.

ADJUST BEVEL SCALE INDICATOR (FIG. 16)

■ Loosen the Phillips screw that holes the indicator

in place.

■ Reposition the indicator to align it with 0° mark and

retighten screw.

STEP FIVE: POSITIONING ZERO CLEARANCE

BLADE INSERT (WHEN MINIMAL TEAR OUT

OR CONTROL OF SMALL OFFAL IS DESIRED)

(FIG. 17)

■ Loosen the three screws that secure the zero

clearance blade insert on one side of the blade.

■ Slide the zero clearance blade insert in towards the

blade until it is as close to the blade as possible

without actually touching the blade.

■ Retighten the three screws.

■ Repeat steps 1-3 for the opposite side of the blade.

MITER LOCK LEVER ADJUSTMENT

With the blade set at an “unindexed” miter position

(other than 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°, 45° and 60°) and the

miter lock lever set in the “locked” position the locking

action should feet tight and secure.Considerable effort

should be required to move the table (blade). While it is

always possible to force the table to move, it should resist

moving when a reasonable amount of force is applied.

To check, follow these steps:

■ Release miter lock lever and position blade at an

“unindexed” position. Lock the miter lock lever.

■ Try and rotate the table. If the table easily moves:

-Release the miter lock lever. Locate the set screw

underneath the miter lock lever.

-Use a 4mm hex wrench to adjust the set screw.

-Lock the miter lock lever and try moving the table.

Readjust if necessary.

BEVEL LOCK LEVER ADJUSTMENT

With the blade set at an “unindexed” bevel position

(other than 0°, 22.5°, 33-7/8°, 45°) and the bevel lock

lever set in the “locked” position the locking action should

feel tight and secure.Considerable effort should be

required to move the blade. While it is always possible to

force the blade to move, it should resist moving when a

reasonable amount of force is applied.

If the bevel moves easily:

■ Release the bevel lock lever.

■ Locate the two 12 mm locking jam nuts (41) behind

the bevel lock lever.

■ Loosen the top locking jam nut.

■ To tighten the bevel lock lever mechanism turn the

bottom jam nut clockwise.To loosen the lock lever

mechanism turn the bottom jam nut counterclockwise.

■ Lock the bevel lock lever and try moving the blade.

Readjust if necessary.

Note: When unlocked the bevel mechanism should

freely pivot. A grating sound indicates the bevel

mechanism needs to be loosened slightly.

BEVEL PIVOT MOVEMENT/ADJUSTMENT

(FIG. 5)

Check that the miter saw bevels easily by unlocking the

bevel lock lever and tilting the blade.

Note:At least one thread of the pivot bolt should stick out

past the hex lock nut (42).

If the movement is tight or there is looseness in the pivot,

do the following adjustment procedure:

■ Unlock the bevel lock lever.

■ Turn the hex lock nut with 19 mm socket.

■

Recheck the bevel movement and readjust if necessary.

FOUR BASIC SAW CONTROLS

■ Depth adjustment cam and head hold down

(Fig. 7 & 8) to release the blade:

-While applying light downward pressure on the handle,

pull the depth adjustment cam (17) to the right,

raise the blade.

Note: It is not necessary to loosen depth adjustment

knob (35).

-Rotate the depth adjustment cam so the flat on the

cam is facing upward.

Note: Head Hold Down is for transport and storage

purposes only. No cutting operations should take

place while hold down is engaged.

-To lock the blade in the lower position.

-Pull the depth adjustment cam to the right and lower

the blade into the table.

-Rotate the depth adjustment cam until slot engages

pin on upper guard.

■ Slide lock knob:

-Turn the slide lock knob counterclock-wise to loosen

and clockwise to tighten. Loosening the knob will

allow the powerhead to slide back and forth.

Tightening the knob will lock the powerhead in place.

ALIGNMENT

WARNING

To reduce the risk of 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.

STEPONE: REPOSITIONING ZERO CLEARANCE

BLADE INSERT (FIG. 9)

The zero clearance blade insert needs to be repositioned

so it is temporarily out of the way when aligning

the blade. It may be replaced after the blade is aligned.

■ Loosen the three screws that secure the zero

clearance blade insert on one side of the blade.

■ Slide the zero clearance insert away from the blade

as far as possible.

■ Retighten the three screws.

■ Repeat steps 1-3 for the opposite side of the blade.

STEP TWO: SLIDE TUBE ADJUSTMENT

(FIG. 10-11)

■ Place the powerhead in the 0° miter/0° bevel index

and lock head in lower position.

■ Check to see that the blade is approximately centered

between the two zero clearance blade inserts.

Also check for play between the right slide rail (36)

and the pivot assembly (37).

■ If adjustment is required loosen the jam nuts on all

four grub screws (38) as shown.

■ Loosen the top two grub screws.

■ Tighten or loosen the lower two grub screws as

required to center the blade between the zero

clearance inserts.

■ Tighten the lower two jam nuts.

■ To minimize play in the slide tubes (11) gradually

tighten the top two grub screws while at the same

time sliding the powerhead back and forth. Tighten

the top jam nuts.

STEP THREE: BLADE SQUARE TO FENCE

(MITER ALIGNMENT) (FIG. 12-13)

■ Place the blade in the 0° miter index and lock the

miter lock.

■ To check blade squareness to fence, lock powerhead

in lower position. Use a combination square.

Place the square against the fence and next to the

blade as illustrated. Locate the square properly so it

does not contact the set in the teeth of sawblade,

giving an inaccurate reading. The sawblade body

should contact the full length of the square.

■ If blade contacts full length of square, no alignment is

necessary, skip step below. If blade is not square to

the fence, follow the alignment procedure.

-Remove sliding fences by loosening fence lock

knobs approximately two turns. Slide fences toward

blade and lift up to remove.

-Loosen the fence lock bolts.

-Place a combination square against the sawblade

and adjust the fence until it is 90° to the blade.

-Tighten the fence lock bolts.

-Replace sliding fences and tighten fence lock knobs.

ADJUST MITER SCALE INDICATOR (FIG. 14)

■ Loosen the Phillips screw that holds the indicator (8)

in place.

■ Reposition the indicator to align it with 0° mark, and

retighten screw.
