ATTACHING THE TA FENCE TO A NON-JESSEM TABLE TOP
You will need to source eight (8) Wood Screws. The length of the screws will depend on
the thickness of your table top. Typically you would want screws that are about ¼" less
than the thickness of your top. (Example: 1" Table top would require ¾" screws.)
STEP 1: Marking your holes
a.
Take one of your preassembled fence track and
angle assemblies and ensure the angle is fairly
centered against the track. See Figure 17.
You will want to have roughly the same amount of
space from each end of the fence angle to the
outer edge of the fence track before proceeding to
Step b.
Figure 17
Fence Angle
With a pencil, mark your holes on the underside of
b.
your table top, using the fence angle/track
assembly as a template. See Figure 18. You will
want to have the back of the track close to even
with the back of the table top as shown in Figure
19.

STEP 2:
track assembly to your table top
Pre-drill the holes using a 1/16" diameter drill bit
and be sure you do not drill through the table top
surface. It is suggested you use masking tape on
your drill bit to prevent this.
Secure the track mount to the table top with the #10
wood screws you sourced. Repeat this step for the
other side. See Figure 19.

Page 6 and follow the instructions for adjusting
the height and front to back alignment of your
tracks on your TA Fence.
