Miter Gauge Calibration
At 90˚ the miter gauge should be perpendicular to the
face of the wheel when it is mounted in the table slot. If
it is not, follow this procedure to recalibrate it.
Tools Needed:
Machinist's Square ..............................................1
Phillips Head Screwdriver .....................................1
To calibrate the miter gauge, do these steps:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. 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 Figure 18.
3. 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.
4. Loosen the degree scale pointer, position the pointer
on 90˚, and retighten the screw.
5. Recheck the miter scale accuracy with the square.
