Hi Alan,

You will need a small square to align your saw. I like to use a 6" Adjustable Combination Square. Start with the fence. Lock the saws miter adjustment into the 0 degree setting. Loosen the bolts which attach the fence to the base. Using your square, position the fence so that it is square to the blade. Now tighten the fence bolts back down.

On the back of the saw there are a couple of set screws that set the zero and 45 degree stops for the bevel. Remove the head from your adjustable combination square. Now you can use just the head to set the bevel adjustments. Check the zero degree setting first and make any needed adjustment with the set screw on the back of the saw. Now do the same for the 45 degree stop.

Your saw should now be true and ready for many more years of accurate cutting!
