marked saw tooth and read the distance between the saw
blade and the guide groove.
– Turn the saw blade until the marked tooth at the front lies
above the table insert.
– Move the angle gauge along the guide groove up to the
marked saw tooth.
– Measure the distance between the saw blade and the
guide groove again.
The two measured distances must be identical.
