Adjustments

Kerf Insert

The kerf insert should be adjusted close to the blade,

but without touching the blade, to avoid tear-out on

the bottom of the workpiece.

1. Lower the head assembly and lock into position.

2. Loosen the six (6) kerf screws using the multi pur-

pose tool (Figure 12).

3. Adjust the kerf inserts as close to the blade (teeth)

as possible without touching the blade.

4. Tighten the kerf screws.

NOTE: At extreme bevel angles the saw blade may

slightly cut into kerf insert.

Depth Adjustment

• When the diameter of the blade has been reduced

due to sharpening, it may be necessary to adjust

the depth stop. When a new blade is installed, it

is necessary to check the clearance of the blade to

the turn table structure.

Setting Blade Depth for

Normal Full Cuts

• The depth stop adjustment is a feature used when

cutting grooves in the workpiece. (See page 27 for

cutting grooves.)

1. Loosen and turn both Jam Nuts to just above the

threaded end of the Depth Stop Bolt (Figure 13).

Figure 13. Depth Adjustment

Set the table to the 0° miter position. Push down

and slide back saw head to the full back position.

While looking at both the blade and the corner

where the fence meets the table, turn the Depth

Stop Bolt to set the blade depth to about 1/4 inch

below the table's surface.

Release the saw head to the up position.

Turn both Jam Nuts to be tight against the bottom

of the support frame. Tighten nuts against each

other.

7. Practice slide cutting (with tool unplugged) to veri-

fy that the blade does not touch table. If it clears

the table, make a practice cut (with tool plugged)

on scrap wood to verify that the cut goes com-

pletely through the lower front edge of the work-

piece

Do not start the miter saw without

checking for interference between

the blade and the turn table structure. The blade

could be ruined if it cuts into the table structure.

Setting Blade Depth for Cutting Grooves

The depth stop can be easily adjusted to limit the

cutting depth, such as when creating a rough slot.

(See page 27 for instructions)

2. Press Depth Stop Release Button and pull up

Depth Stop Bolt until nuts hit the bottom of its

support frame (Figure 13).
