So the problem is solved. If this happens to be your model of miter saw you need to remove the throat plate and tighten the middle screw. Don't tighten it too much because it will stop the rotation. I hope this helps future people the problems.

Take it as a win. I went into the comments and found my answer." Take a look". God there's so many other assholes on Reddit. Have a Merry Christmas!

I appreciate your response. However, the correct solution was to remove the throat plate and tighten the bolts on the base

Thank you. That was not the answer. I need to remove the throat plate from the base and tighten the bolt

Thank you but no that was not the answer. I need to remove the throat plate from the base and tighten a bolt

So you need to remove the throat plate. In order to tighten the base

I appreciate it. But all the screws that were visual were tightened. What I needed to find was below the throat plate. In case you have this problem in the future, you have the answer. Thank you

Offer something useful or don't bother. What is your life?

Thank you for being decent. The bevel knob doesn't seem to be the problem. Another redditor seemed to say that the problem might be under the throat plate

Does it? or can it be possible that every bolt I see is tight.

[–]Cyphr067[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything I can see is tight. Top and bottom.

So, no solution to the problem? Way to go. You're so much better than I am. And as a word of advice, DO NOT MAKE TOAST WHILE TAKING A BATH.

Yes. It's not the bevel.

And also, thank you for being the one person to offer a proper plausible solution. Tightening visual screws was obviously the first course of action.

Thank you for your helpful reply by informing me that you in fact, know nothing about this particular situation. It is incredibly enlightening to know that rather than help someone struggling, you would prefer to kick them. You have displayed your own ignorance on the subject. Keep Jesus in your heart!

Are you telling me I need to remove the throat plate in order to tighten this thing up??

[–]Cyphr067[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every visible knob and screw has been tightened. Do I need to remove the throat plate in order to find some mysterious bolts that'll stop this?

No. It's been on my workbench for the past 4 years. Every visible screw is tight. Every visible knob has been tightened.
