OPERATION
TO CHANGE BLADE DEPTH
See Figure 36.
The blade depth should be set so that the outer points of the
saw blade are higher than the workpiece by approximately
1/8 in. to 1/4 in. but the lowest points (gullets) are below
the workpiece.
 Unlock the blade height lock knob.
 Raise the saw blade by turning the height adjusting knob
clockwise or lower it by turning the knob counterclockwise.
 Once the desired saw blade height is achieved, lock the
blade height lock knob by turning it clockwise.
TO CHANGE BLADE ANGLE
See Figure 37.
NOTE: A 90° cut has a 0° bevel and a 45° cut has a 45° bevel.
 Unplug the saw.
 Unlock bevel locking lever by pulling the lever all the way
to the right.
 Adjust the bevel angle, turning the handwheel
counterclockwise increases the angle of the blade, bringing
it closer to 45°. Turning it clockwise decreases the angle,
bringing the blade closer to 90°.
NOTE: When the bevel adjusting handwheel is pushed
back towards the saw housing and released, the bevel
angle can be quickly changed by pushing the handwheel
left or right.
 Lock bevel locking lever by pushing lever to the left.
TO ADJUST THE BEVEL INDICATOR
See Figure 38.
If the bevel indicator is not at zero when the saw blade is at
90°, adjust the indicator by loosening the screws and setting
at 0° on the bevel scale. Retighten the screws.
TO USE THE IND-I-CUT
See Figure 39.
The plastic disc embedded in the saw table in front of the
saw blade is provided for marking the location of the saw
cut (kerf) on the workpiece.
The disc should be level or slightly below the surface of the
saw table. Place a piece of hardwood over the plastic disc
and tap the hardwood with a hammer until the disc is level
or below the saw table surface.
Once the Ind-I-Cut is level:
™
 From the front of the table saw, place the miter gauge
in the left miter groove and move the bevel adjusting
handwheel until the bevel scale is set at 0°.
 Turn on the table saw and cross cut a piece of wood
holding the wood firmly against the miter gauge.
 Turn off the table saw. Once the blade has stopped, pull
the miter gauge back until the freshly cut wood is over
the disc.
