I have a TS55 REQ who's 90* detent has gone slightly out of 90*.  Are there adjustable stops and if so, where are they?  Thanks for the help.
 
The early version of the TS55 REQ didn’t have an adjustable stop screw, the later ones did.

Here is one thread that discussed adding a grub stop screw to help with the adjustment.

And another

I have an early model with no stop screw so I do end up having to recalibrate every so often as shown in page 13 of:

I've read the previous threads and it seems like there's a way to adjust the rear of the saw.  Once that's done, one must tighten the rear knob first, then the front knob.  Question is, how is the rear adjustment accomplished?
