ASSEMBLY
 Carefully tighten the four center nuts for the rail.
 With the rip fence lying on top of the saw table, check to
see that the rip fence slides freely across the table and
table extension and will not catch or drag at any point.
 There should be an equal gap between the saw table and
the bottom of the rip fence from the front to back of the
rip fence, on both sides of the blade.
 Lay a framing square on each side of the table top as
shown to make sure the table extensions are level with
the top.
 If the table extensions and rails are flat and level, securely
tighten the four center nuts on the front rail and the four
center bolts on the rear rail.
 Securely tighten the four outer nuts and bolts on each
rail.
 Check the table and extensions to make sure all assembled
parts are flush and level.
 If the table extensions, rip fence, and rails are not level,
make adjustments by slightly loosening and retightening
the bolts and nuts, and repositioning the rails until they
are level and flush with the table top.

The bolts and nuts for the spreader bar were removed from
