When the blade is tilted to the LEFT as far as it
will go, it should be at 45° to the table and the
bevel indicator should point 45° .
NOTE: There are LIMIT STOPS on the saw
which prevent the blade from tilting beyond
45° to the LEFT and 90° to the RIGHT. (See
"'Adjustments" section "'Blade Tilt, or
Squareness of Blade to Table").
TiLT LOCK HANDLE... locks the blade in the
desired tilt position. To loosen, turn
counterclockwise. Push handle in and turn it to
another position if necessary in order to

6 MITER GAUGE _ .nead is locked in position
for crosscutting or mitering by tightening the
lock knob. ALWAYS LOCK IT SECURELY
WHEN tN USE,
There are slots for the stop pin at the 45 degree
right and left positions forconveniently setting
the Miter Gauge to cut miters.
NOTE: The slots for the stop pin and the
graduations are manufactured to very close
tolera nces which provide accuracy for average
woodworking. In some cases where extreme
accuracy is required, when making angle cuts,
for example, make a trial cut and then recheck
it.
If necessary, the miter gauge head can then be
swiveled slightly to compensate and then
locked.
Slots are provided in the miter gauge for
attaching an AUXILIARY FACING to make it
easier to cut long pieces. Be positive facing
does not interfere with the proper operation of
the sawblade guard.
Select a suitable piece of smooth straight
wood ... dril two holes and attach it with
screws,
NOTE: When bevel crosscutting, attach facing
so that it extends to the right of the miter gauge
and use the miter gauge in the groove to the
nght of the blade.
RIP FENCE... is locked in place by tightening
the lock knob. To move the fence, loosen the
knob and grasp the fence with one hand atthe
front.
Holes are provided in the rip fence for
attaching a wood facing when using the dado
head, or molding head.
Select a piece of smooth straight wood approx.
3/4" thick, at least as long as the rip fence, and
at least 7-1/2" wide (high) to permit clamping
of featherboards.
Attach it to the fence with three Round Head 7
#10 Wood Screws 2 in. long. To remove the
facing, loosen the screws, slide the facing
forward and pull the screws through the round
holes.
If you are making a rip type cut in material
thinner than 3/16 in. while the fence is
positioned over the depressed area of table
extension, the facing should be attached to the
fence so that the bottom edge touches the top
surface of the extension. In this case, the
facing must be shorter than the fence. This will
prevent thin material from sliding under the rip
fence. 8
