SUPPORTING LONG WORKPIECES

In most cases the included table extensions
(workpiece supports) will be sufficient to support
longer workpieces. If these are not long enough, the
workpiece should be supported further out from the
saw. Additional support (A) may be used to make
the workpiece lay flat on the saw table. Use the
included work clamp or a C-clamp (B) to secure the
workpiece to the miter saw table. See Figure 20.
Keep clamps away from the path of
the blade and blade guard assembly.
Before performing any adjustment, make
sure the tool is unplugged from the
power supply. Failure to heed this warning could result in
serious personal injury.
Your compound miter saw has been properly adjusted
at the factory. Due to shipping or normal use, it may
be necessary to re-adjust some of the settings. Check
the following adjustments periodically to assure proper
accuracy and safe operation.
Check for interference between the
blade and the throat plate, before
plugging the saw into the power source.

ARM PIVOT

The arm of the saw should raise and lower completely
and freely. In the lowered position and with the lock pin
removed, the arm should rise to the up position by itself.
If the saw arm does not raise by itself or if there is play in
the pivot joints, it will need to be professionally repaired at
an AUTHORIZED SHOPMASTER® SERVICE CENTER.
Please call Company's Customer Care Center at 800-223-
7278.

POSITIVE STOP SCREW

The position of the positive stop adjustment screw was set
at the factory and normally will not require readjustment.
If the blade is not square to the table, the positive stop
adjustment screw must be re-adjusted.
To adjust refer to Figure 21.
1. Unplug the saw
2. Using the Phillips end of the blade wrench, loosen
the positive stop adjustment screw (C) by turning it
counterclockwise.
3. Loosen the bevel lock knob (D) by turning it
counterclockwise.
4. Square the blade to the miter table as described in the
section entitled, ALIGN THE BLADE TO THE TABLE,
found on page 12.
5. Re-tighten bevel lock knob. Recheck blade-to-table
alignment.
6. The saw has two scale indicators, one on the bevel
scale and one on the miter scale. After squaring
adjustments have been made, it may be necessary to
loosen the indicator screws and reset them to zero.
NOTE: Use this procedure to check that the blade is square
to the table at 0° and 45° angles.
