Aligning
Fence Faces
For safe and accurate shaping, the fence boards
must be parallel with one another so that they
properly support the workpiece through the entire
cutting operation.
Tools Needed
Hex Wrench 6mm .............................................. 1
Precision Straightedge 24" ................................ 1
To make fence boards parallel:
1.
DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2.
Raise and lock guard so it's out of the way.
3.
Set both fences to 0" by turning micro-
adjustment knobs fully counterclockwise, lock
them, then place straightedge against both
fence faces, as shown in Figure 71.
Figure 71. Example of aligning fence boards.
— If fence scales do not display 0" when
knob is fully turned, refer to the Zeroing
Out Fence section on Page 49.

4.
Check to see if straightedge is flat against
fence faces and that there are no gaps along
its length.
— If there are no gaps anywhere between
the straightedge and the fence faces,
fences are parallel.
— If there is a gap between the straightedge
and the fence boards, continue to the fol-
lowing step.
