Compute the leading angle. First, fix the saw edge therefore it is similar to the equip of the T level when the manage is flush contrary to the saw fencing. Notice the amount of levels, if any, far from zero the knife place scans.
Work with A level to quantify the perspective of the part, securing the lock nut using the edge along with the manage around the benchmark point. Put the T level available of your power miter noticed, and fix the miter knife to ensure it fits the perspective.
