There are positive stops at each end of the bevel 

range.  To ensure accurate cuts, the positive stops 

must be positioned at exactly at 90° and 45°. The bevel 

stops are properly adjusted as shipped. However, for 

maximum accuracy, you should check the position 

of the stops upon assembly and from time to time to 

assure that the settings remain satisfactory. To check 

the position of the stops and adjust if necessary, refer 

to Figure 14 and do the following.

1.  Release the blade tilt lock knob. 
2.  Rotate the blade tilt handwheel clockwise and tilt the 

blade away from, then back toward perpendicular 

until the stop is reached the "stop position". 

3.  Using a carpenter’s square, check the angle of the 

blade face to the table, as shown in Figure 20b, 

page 20. If the blade is at 90° to the table, proceed 

to Step 6.

4.  If the blade is not perpendicular to the table, turn 

handwheel to slightly tilt the blade away from the 

stop position then adjust the 90° stop by rotating 

the socket set screw located in the table top 

immediately in front of the left side of throat plate 

(A). Re-check angle using the carpenter’s square 

and continue to adjust until the blade is at 90 

degrees when returned to the stop position. 

This saw is designed for portability. Do 

not attempt to use the saw to cut a 

large or cumbersome workpiece without first taking 

appropriate steps to protect against tipping the saw. 

Examples of appropriate steps include the use of 

support tables and/or securing the saw legs to the floor 

by replacing the saw feet with connecting bolts or by 

attaching the legs to a floor mounted bracket with 

u-straps. 

5.  Rotate the blade tilt wheel counterclockwise until 

it rests on the 45° stop. Then repeat Steps 4 and 

5, adjusting the 45° stop by rotating the socket set 

screw located in front of the right side of the throat 

plate. (B) 

•  ALWAYS make sure your workpiece is not in contact 

with the blade before operating the switch to start 

the saw. Blade contact could result in kickback or 

thrown workpiece.

•  To reduce the risk of accidental starting, ALWAYS 

make sure the switch is in the off position before 

plugging saw into power source.

•  DO NOT use blades rated less than the speed of 

this tool. Failure to heed this warning could result in 

serious personal injury.

•  Turn unit off and disconnect it from power source 

before installing and removing accessories, before 

adjusting and when making repairs. An accidental 

start-up can cause injury.

•  Prior to operating the saw, make sure you are familiar 

with its features and controls, and have made all 

necessary adjustments as described below.
