My makita sliding mitre saw is off a few degrees How do I adjust...non laser...10''

check for slide wear on the mounts
if it has any it allows the motor and saw to drop sideways and alter the cut angle
you can compensate by moving the setting that bit extra and the locking it up

contact Makita, it may be defective
, or they can troubleshoot. You can check on youtube.com for a possible fix also.

Take unit back to the supplier, as FAULTY

if this is a Makita, there should be a large black knob that you need to loosen to allow it to slide, Let me know if you need more help and if you do please furnish the brand and model number

You can get it at Makita.com, type in yr modal number in the search bar, download a parts breakdown or a manual, if not u can order a new sticker from makita.

Make sure its a compound mitre and not just a mitre saw. The check in the back for a round knob with degrees marks on it, theres your adjuster.

If you look on the back of the saw where the pivot is, there should be a bolt on either side that should adjust how much bevel there is . As for a 90 degree angle, there should be a locking pin or stop to keep it from leaning out of square. Be sure that it is accepting the pin properly and that it is clean. Not sure if there is an adjustment on the sliding saw, but i know there wasn't on my dual compound mitre saw

rotating the laser in its' housing moves it left and right. The hexagonal bolt on the sides needs to be loosened to do this, then it can also be adjusted up and down. Make sure the trigger to the saw is locked before doing this.

you have to turn the handle, it works like a bolt, you cant see it but it is tied in, you have to unscrew it before trying to move it

Are you having problems with the miter or bevel ? Are you asking how to physically move the saw to that degree angle?
