CAUTION: For easy of use, bevel adjust should

stop at 45° and 90°.

This saw has positive stops that will quickly position the

saw blade at 90° (0°) or 45° to the table.

Angle settings of saw have been set at the factory

and, unless damaged in shipping, should not require setting

during assembly. After extensive use, they may need to be

checked.

To check 90° (0°) bevel:

• Turn power off and unplug the saw.

• Raise the blade to the maximum height by turning the

height adjusting knob clockwise.

• Remove the anti-kickback pawls and blade guard.

• Using a framing square (89), set the blade (45) to exactly

90°.

• If the blade stops bevelling before it gets to 90°, loosen

the 90° stop set screw (90) (located at the left of the bevel

track on the front), and then adjust it to 90°.

• With the blade set at 90°, slowly turn the 90° stop

set screw (90) until you feel resistance. Bevel the blade

away from 90° a little, and then back to the stop.

• Re-measure the angle and repeat the stop adjustment as

necessary until the blade stops at 90°.

ADJUSTMENTS

To check 45° bevel:

• Turn power off and unplug the saw.

• Raise the blade to the maximum height by turning the

height adjusting knob clockwise.

• Remove the anti-kickback pawls and blade guard.

• Using a triangle square (91), set the blade (45) to exactly

• If the blade stops bevelling before it gets to 45°, loosen

the 45° stop set screw (92) (located at the right of the

bevel track on the front), and then adjust it to 45°.

• With the blade set at 45°, slowly turn the 45° stop

set screw (92) until you feel resistance. Bevel the blade

away from 45° a little, and then back to the stop.

• Re-measure the angle and repeat the stop adjustment as

necessary until the blade stops at 45°.
