square is not touching the tip of one of the saw teeth.
If the blade is not an exact 45°:
 Release the bevel locking lever.
 Turn the bevel handle until the bevel indicator points to
35°-40°.
 Turn 45° stop screw 1/4 turn counterclockwise.

 Lock the bevel locking lever.
 Watching for blade movement against the square, turn 45°
stop screw clockwise. When you see slight movement,
stop turning.
 Repeat above steps to recheck and readjust blade angle
as needed.
Once blade is square (45°) to the table:
 Check bevel indicator.
 If indicator is not pointing to the 45º mark on the bevel
scale, loosen the indicator adjusting screw and adjust
indicator.

TO ADJUST THE MITER GAUGE
See Figure 65.
You can set the miter gauge at 0º and plus or minus 45º
with the miter gauge stop pin and adjustable stop screws.
NOTE: The miter gauge provides close accuracy in angled
cuts. For very close tolerances, test cuts are recommended.
To adjust stop screws:
 Loosen the lock knob and pull out on stop pin to rotate
miter gauge base past stop screws.
 Loosen the lock nut of the 0º stop screw at the stop pin
with a wrench.
 Place a 90º square against the miter gauge rod and the
miter gauge base.
 If the rod is not square, loosen the lock knob, adjust the
rod, and retighten the knob.
 Adjust the stop screw until it rests against the stop pin
and tighten lock nut.
