ADJUSTMENT

RIP FENCE ADJUSTMENT (FIG. Z)
1. The fence (1) can be repositioned by lifting up the
handle (2) and sliding the fence to the desired location.
Pushing down the handle locks the fence in position.
2. Position the fence (1) on the right side of the table, and
along one edge of the miter gauge grooves.
3. Lock the fence handle (2). The fence should be parallel
with the miter gauge groove.
4. If adjustment is needed to make the fence parallel to the
groove, do the following:
• Loosen the two screws (3) and lift up on the handle (2).
• Hold the fence bracket (4) firmly against the front of
the saw table. Move the rip fence until it is parallel with
the miter gauge groove.
• Tighten both screws and push the handle to lock.
5. If fence is loose when the handle is in the locked
(downward) position, do the following:
• Lift the handle (2) upward and turn the adjusting
nut (5) clockwise using a 10 mm wrench until the rear
clamp is snug. Do not turn the adjusting nut more than
1/4 turn at a time.
• Over-tightening the adjusting nut will cause the fence
to come out of alignment.
WARNING
Failure to
properly align the
fence can cause
"kickback" and
5
serious injury
could occur.

with a screwdriver. Adjust the
pointer to 90° on the scale, then
firmly tighten the adjustment
screw.

gauge, loosen the lock handle (1)
and rotate the miter body (2) to
the desired angle as indicated
by the scale. Secure in position
by tightening the lock handle (1).
ADJUSTING THE TABLE
INSERT (FIG. BB)
