written in laser adjustment instructions.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, ALWAYS lock the miter lock handle, bevel lock
handle, down lock pin, and fence adjustment knob before
transporting saw.
In order to conveniently carry the miter saw from place to
place, a carrying handle has been included on the top of

the saw arm, as shown in Figure 3. To transport the saw,
lower the arm and depress the lock down pin shown in
Figure 4.

ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn off the tool and disconnect it from the
power source before attempting to move it, change
accessories or make any adjustments accept as
written in laser adjustment instructions.
WASHER
NOTE: Your miter saw is fully and accurately adjusted at
the factory at the time of manufacture. If readjustment due
to shipping and handling or any other reason is required,
follow the steps below to adjust your saw.
Once made, these adjustments should remain accurate.
Take a little time now to follow these directions carefully to
maintain the accuracy of which your saw is capable.

MITER SCALE ADJUSTMENT

Place a square against the saw's fence and blade, as
shown in Figure 7. (Do not touch the tips of the blade
teeth with the square. To do so will cause an inaccurate
measurement.) Unlock miter lock lever (see Fig. 8) and
swing the miter arm until the miter detent locks it at the 0˚
miter position. Do not lock miter lock lever. If the saw blade
is not exactly perpendicular to the fence, loosen the three
screws that hold the miter scale to the base (shown in
Fig. 8) and move the scale/miter arm assembly left or right
until the blade is perpendicular to the fence, as measured
with the square. Retighten the three screws. Pay no
attention to the reading of the miter pointer at this point.

MITER POINTER ADJUSTMENT

Unlock miter lock lever and squeeze the miter detent
to move the miter arm to the zero position, as shown in
Figure 8. Unlock the miter lock lever to allow the miter
detent to snap into place as you rotate the miter arm past
zero. Observe the pointer and miter scale through the
viewing opening shown in Figure 9. If the pointer does not
indicate exactly zero, loosen the pointer screw, adjust the
pointer to 0˚ and retighten.

BEVEL SQUARE TO TABLE

To align the blade square to the rotary table, lock the arm
in the down position. Place a square against the blade
taking care to not have the square on top of a tooth, as
shown in Figure 10B. Loosen the Bevel Clamp Knob so
that you can move the Bevel Arm. Move the Bevel Arm
as necessary so that the blade is at 0° bevel to the table.
If the Bevel Arm needs adjustment, loosen the lock nut on
the right side Bevel Stop as shown in Figure 11, and adjust
the stop screw as necessary. Hold the stop screw in place
and tighten the lock nut.

BEVEL POINTER

If the bevel pointer does not indicate zero, loosen the screw
that holds it in place and move the pointer as necessary.
Suggestion: For accuracy, set the top edge so that it
aligns with zero.

BEVEL STOP

To set the 45° bevel stop shown in Figure 12, first loosen
the left side fence clamping knob and slide the left side
fence as far as it will go to the left. Move the arm to the
left until it stops on the left bevel stop screw. If the bevel
pointer does not indicate exactly 45°, loosen the left side
bevel stop lock nut and turn the screw downwards. Move
the arm to the left and tighten the bevel clamp knob firmly
