shown in Figure 91. Make sure the square does not
contact a blade tooth.

do not need to be made.

stop collar and proceed to the next step.

5. Open the motor access cover, loosen the cap screws

on the 45° stop collar (see Figure 92), then turn the
collar one turn away from the trunnion bracket. This
will allow you to adjust the blade to exactly 45° in
the next step.
