Step 6 - Adjust the 90° miter gauge stop bolt so it rests

against the pin. Re-tighten the jam nut. Be
careful not to alter the position of the stop
bolt.

Step 7 - Re-check the squareness of the miter gauge to

the miter slot using your square. If it is not
square, repeat steps 1-6.

Repeat steps 1-7 for the two 45° miter gauge stop bolts.

In order to make straight, predictable miter cuts, the
miter gauge must be properly adjusted. There are 3
adjustable stops built into the miter gauge (two at 45°
and one at 90°) that are engaged by pushing in the stop
pin. These stops make it easier to make changes in the
miter gauge angle.

To adjust the miter gauge stops:

Step 1 - Insert the miter gauge into its slot and adjust

the blade angle to 90°. Pull out the miter
gauge stop pin.

Step 2 - Place an accurate square against the miter

gauge bar and the face of the miter gauge.

.
Step 3 - If there is a gap between the miter gauge bar

and the square, loosen the miter gauge lock
knob and move the face of the miter gauge
into the square until the gap is eliminated. Re-
tighten the lock knob.

Step 4 - Push in the miter gauge stop pin.

Step 5 - Loosen the jam nut on the stop bolt.
