At 90˚, the miter gauge should be perpendicular
to the face of the wheel when it is mounted in the
X-axis table slot. if it is not, follow this procedure
to recalibrate it.

to calibrate the miter gauge:
1. disCoNNeCt mAChiNe From poWer!
2. Check that the miter slot is parallel to the
sanding wheel as described in
table Gap &
parallelism.
3. Use a try square or machinist’s square with
one edge against the face of the miter gauge
and the other against the disc face, as shown
in

4. loosen the lock knob on the miter gauge
and adjust the face of the miter gauge so it is
flush with the edge of the square, tighten the
gauge lock knob, and verify the setting.
flush with the edge of the square, tighten the
gauge lock knob, and verify the setting.
5. loosen the degree scale pointer, position the
pointer on 90˚, and retighten the screw.
6. recheck the miter scale accuracy with the
square.
