HEELING(PARALLELING)THESAWBLADE

TO THE MITERGAGEGROOVE

See Figures 47, 48 and 49.

DO NOT loosen any screws for this adjustment

until you have checked with a square and made

test cuts to be sure adjustments are necessary,

Once the screws are loosened, these items must

be reset.

_k WARNING: Make sure the switch is off, switch

key is removed and saw is unplugged. Failure to

do so could result in accidental starting causing

serious personal injury.

_i, WARNING: The sawblade must parallel the miter

gage groove so the wood does not bind, resulting

in kickback. You could be hit or cut.

• Lift the blade guard. Raise the blade all the way by

turning the height handwheel. Position the blade

straight up with the bevel lock handle and the bevel

handwheel.

• Mark beside one of the sawblade teeth at the front

of the blade. Place a framing square beside the

blade on the mark. Be sure the framing square is

between the teeth and flat against the blade.

Measure the distance to the right miter groove.

• Turn the sawblade so the mark is at the back of the

saw table.

• Move the square to the rear and again measure the

distance to the right miter gage groove. If the

distances are the same, the blade and the miter

gage groove are parallel.

• Ifthe distances measured are different, adjust the

table brackets underneath the saw.
