6. Thread a hex nut (A, Fig. 17) onto the sliding

pad (B, Fig. 17) and insert through the fence

and rear hook (C, Fig. 17). Secure in place

using a hex nut, lock washer and flat washer

(D, Fig. 17). The hook (C, Fig. 17) should be

adjusted so that it overlaps the rear rail by

approximately 1/8".

7. When the fence assembly is placed on the

table, the rear hook (C, Fig. 17) should

engage the rear rail.

8. The gap between the bottom of the rip fence

and the table top should be just enough that

the fence will not scrape along the table, and

the gap should be equal along the length of

the fence. To do this, lock the fence assembly

to the front rail by pushing down on the fence

handle. The rail screws should still have “play”

in them.

9. Lift up on both guide rail and fence together

until the gap at the front edge of the table is

acceptable. Tighten both screws on the front

rail (B, Fig. 14).

10. Also adjust the “play” of the rear rail (B, Fig.

13) until the fence/table gap is equal. The

rails and rip fence should now be at the

proper height in relation to the table. Of

course, the rear hook (Fig. 17) can be

adjusted further to help make the fence/table

gap equal.

11. Use a square to check that the fence is

perpendicular to the table top (A, Fig. 18). If it

is not, one end of the front and/or rear rails

will need to be loosened and raised or

lowered to make the rail (and thus the fence)

parallel with the table top.

12. Position the fence so that it just contacts the

blade without bending it (see Fig. 19), and

lock the fence handle to the guide rail. If the

fence is not parallel to the blade, loosen the

four hex cap screws (A, Fig. 19). Align the

fence with the blade and tighten the four hex

cap screws.

13. With the fence still contacting the blade as

shown, check to see that the pointer (B, Fig.

19) is aligned with the zero marking on the

guide rail. If adjustment is necessary, loosen

the screw that holds the pointer in place, and

slide the pointer. If greater adjustment is

necessary, loosen the guide rail and slide it as

needed. Re-tighten guide rail screws.
