The kerf insert should be adjusted close to the
blade, but without touching the blade, to avoid tear-
out on the bottom of the workpiece.
1. Lower the head assembly and lock into position.
2. Loosen the six (6) kerf screws using the multi
purpose tool or multi purpose "L" wrench (Figure
12).
3. Adjust the kerf inserts as close to the blade
(teeth) as possible without touching the blade.
4. Tighten the kerf screws.
NOTE: At extreme bevel angles the saw blade may
slightly cut into kerf insert.
• When the diameter of the blade has been reduced
due to sharpening, it may be necessary to adjust
the depth stop. When a new blade is installed, it
is necessary to check the clearance of the blade to
the turn table structure.
Setting Blade Depth for Normal full Cuts
• The depth stop adjustment is a feature used when
cutting grooves in the workpiece. (See page 30 for
cutting grooves.)
1. Loosen and turn both of the lower Jam Nuts to just
above the threaded end of the Depth Stop Bolt
(Fig. 13).
2. Press Depth Stop Release Button and pull up
Depth Stop Bolt until nuts hit the bottom of its sup-
port frame.
3. Set the table to the 0° miter position. Push down
and slide back saw head to the full back position.
4. While looking at both the blade and the corner
where the fence meets the table, turn the Depth
Stop Bolt to set the blade depth to about 1/4 inch
below the table's surface.
5. Release the saw head to the up position.
6. Turn both lower Jam Nuts to be tight against the
bottom of the support frame. Tighten nuts against
each other.
7. Practice slide cutting (with tool unplugged) to verify
that the blade does not touch table. If it clears the
table, make a practice cut (with tool plugged) on
