I had to turn it to five (5) to have it line up. When I went back to Sears I checked another one (they didn't have any more of my model but had a similar style) and that one worked the way it was supposed to do. So much for a "precision instrument". I think Craftsman quality has taken a definite turn for the worst lately. Guess I'll have to look elsewhere....

Sears is owned by KMart, nuff said.
