Note: If the front end of the fence needs to
be adjusted up or down, use the set screws
from Figure 129; however, turn them in
even increments and recheck the square-
ness afterwards.
clamping pressure and parallelism
the fence clamping mechanism adjusts the
clamping pressure to hold the fence securely and
to position the fence parallel with the blade.
To verify fence parallelism:
1.
slide the fence along the rail.
—if the fence drags across the table, then
loosen the hex nut on the foot at the rear
of the fence and adjust the foot to raise the
fence off of the table so the gap is approxi-
mately ⁄ " and even from the front of the
1
16
table to the back (see Figure 130 on page
75). then, tighten the hex nut on the foot.
2.
slide the fence up against the right hand
edge of the miter slot, lock it in place, then
raise the blade above the insert. examine
how the fence lines up with the miter slot and
the blade, as shown in Figure 131.

blade.

— if the fence/miter slot are parallel with the
blade, as shown in Figure 131, no further
adjustments need to be made.
— if the fence is not parallel with the blade/
miter slot, then you must adjust the fence,
as described in "to adjust the fence clamp-
ing pressure and parallelism to the blade"
below, so that it is parallel with the blade.
—if the miter slot is not parallel with the blade,
you must follow the procedures described
in Miter Slot to Blade parallelism on
page 71.
To adjust the fence clamping pressure and
parallelism to the blade:
1. disConneCt saW From poWer!
2.
remove the fence and equally adjust the set
screws shown in Figure 132 as necessary,
then re-install the fence and check the clamp-
ing pressure. readjust as necessary until the
fence will not move as pressure is applied
against it.

adjust fence parallelism and clamping pressure.
3.
mount the fence on the rail again, move it
approximately 4" away from the blade, and
lock it in place.
4. measure the distance between the fence and
the front of the blade, then mark the tooth
that you measured from with a felt-tipped
marker.
