Page 2: Warranty
This warranty does not apply to defects arising from misuse, abuse, negligence, accidents, normal wear- and-tear, unauthorized repair or alteration, or lack of maintenance. This warranty is void if the fence system or any portion of the fence system is modified without the prior written permission of SawStop, LLC, or if the fence system is located or has been used outside of the country where the authorized SawStop distributor from whom the fence system was purchased resides. Please contact SawStop to take advantage of this warranty. If SawStop determines the fence system is... - Page 3 Installation To install the rails, extension table, and fence you will need the following tools: 5 mm hex driver and 6 mm hex key (included) 13 mm and 17 mm wrenches (or adjustable wrench) Phillips head screwdriver 1. Installing the Front Rail: The first step in installing the fence is to attach the long angle iron rails to the table. Please see pages 10 and 12 for exploded views of the rails and extension tables. The rails are shipped in the long cardboard box packaged with the main tube. The front rail is the larger of the two and includes 5 countersunk holes that are used to mount the rail to the front of the table. To mount the front rail, position the rail along the front of the table with the cut-outs at the top of the rail centered on the miter gauge slots in the table. Thread three M8 x 25 countersunk socket head bolts into the tapped holes in the front of the main table.
- Page 4 2. Installing the Rear Rail: You install the rear rail like you installed the front rail, except that you will probably want to leave the rear rail a little loose until you get the extension table installed. The rear rail is attached to the main table by two M8 x 25 countersunk socket head bolts. Position the rear rail along the back of the table with the cut-outs at the top of the rail centered on the miter gauge slots in the table. Thread the bolts into the tapped holes and tighten using the 5 mm hex driver. See Fig. 2. Use longer bolts to mount rail to extension table. Fig. 2 Mount the rear rail to each extension wing using an M8 x 35 countersunk socket head bolt, an M8 washer, an M8 lock washer and an M8 hex nut. If necessary, push down or pull up on the wings before tightening the nuts to ensure the wings are parallel to the table. As mentioned above, it is usually easier to leave the bolts in the rear rail slightly loose until the extension table is installed as it may be difficult to position the extension table between the rails if both rails are tightened down. 3. Installing the Extension Table: Once the rails are in place you can mount the extension table to the rails. (If you did not purchase an extension table, skip to step 4.) Begin by installing the adjustable foot in the bottom of each support leg. The extension table for the 36” rails includes one support leg and the extension table for the 52” rails includes two support legs. First, thread an M8 hex nut onto the threaded shaft of the foot as close to the rubber base as possible. Next, thread the foot into the bottom of the support leg as far as possible. See Fig. 3.
- Page 5 Each support leg is mounted to the underside of the extension table using two angled brackets. Align the two holes in the support leg to the two holes in the brackets. Put one of the M10 x 45 hex head bolts through each hole in the leg and brackets. Thread an M10 lock nut on the end of the bolt and tighten with a 17 mm wrench. See Fig. 4. You will need to hold the head of the hex bolt with another 17 mm wrench to tighten the lock nut. Next, mount the brackets to the underside of the extension table using the M4 x 16 mm wood screws provided. The underside of the extension table is pre-drilled to receive the screws. Be careful not to overtighten these wood screws because you may strip the threads in the wood. Fig. 4 The next step of the assembly is easiest with two people. Position the extension table between the front and rear rails. The support leg(s) should be at the far end of the rails, away from the saw. Install M8 x 40 countersunk socket head bolts through the front rail and into the corresponding holes in the front edge of the extension table. Install M8 x 40 countersunk socket head bolts through the rear rail and into the corresponding holes in the rear edge of the extension table. See Fig. 5. Place an M8 washer and an M8 lock...
- Page 6 Next, install the M8 x 45 socket head bolt and D-washer through the hole in the center of the left side of the extension table. The bolt should also extend through the center hole in the right extension wing. Make sure the flat edge of the D-washer is facing upward. See Fig. 6. Install an M8 washer and an M8 lock nut on the end of the bolt and hand tighten. Fig. 6 If you left the rear rail slightly loose, tighten it now. If necessary, pull up or push down on the extension wings before tightening as described above. Once both rails are installed securely, adjust the position of the extension table so that its top surface is level and flush with the top surface of the cast iron extension wing. Fully tighten the nuts to lock the extension table in place. If necessary, put upward or downward pressure on the left edge of the extension table to make it flush with the extension wing, and then tighten the M8 x 45 socket head bolt that passes through the D-washer.
- Page 7 4. Installing the Main Tube: The main tube is installed on the front rail using the M8 x 16 hex head bolts with attached washers. Position the tube on the horizontal portion of the front rail with the rulers facing up and the 12 inch ruler on the left side. The powder coated surfaces of the tube and rail can be slick, so be careful that the tube does not fall off the rail. Align the holes in the rail with the holes in the bottom of the tube. Thread the M8 x 16 hex head bolts through the rail and into the threaded holes in the bottom of the tube. See Fig. 7. Leave the bolts finger tight. Fig. 7 The holes in the bottom of the front rail are oversized to allow the position of the tube on the rail to be adjusted. To set the tube in the correct position, first pull the tube away from the cast-iron table as far as possible. Next, place your fence down on the tube with the fence glide bracket resting on the upper rear edge of the tube. Position the fence so that it is near the left end of the tube and the front glide pads are in contact with the rear surface of the main tube. See Figs. 8a and 8b. rear glide pad front glide pad Fig. 8a Fig. 8b page 5...
- Page 8 Next, attach the fence handle to the fence by threading the handle into the cam lock. Press down on the fence handle to clamp the fence to the main tube. If the fence does not clamp tightly enough to the main tube to hold its position against a moderate amount of force, you can increase the clamping force by turning both parallelism adjustment screws clockwise. See Fig. 9. Alternatively, if too much pressure on the handle is needed to clamp the fence to the main tube, you can reduce the clamping force by adjusting both parallelism...
- Page 9 5. Fence Adjustments: Although the fence is factory-adjusted to nominal settings, it is usually necessary to make final adjustments once your rails and extension table have been installed on the saw. The first step is to align the face plates to be parallel to the miter slots. Begin by sliding the fence along the tube until the left face plate is flush with the right edge of the right miter slot.
- Page 10 Place a combination square on the table top and against the left face plate. See Fig. 13. Use a 6 mm hex key to adjust the leveling screws as necessary until the face plate is parallel to the vertical edge of the combination square. Fig. 13 If necessary, you can adjust both of the plastic set screws to ensure the position indicator lenses are close to, but not touching, the main tube or rulers. The last step is to set the spacing between the bottom of each face plate and the table. The face plates are held in place by a series of screws threaded into nuts embedded in the face plates. The heads of the screws fit into key-hole slots in the sides of the fence. See Fig. 14. Fig. 14 page 8...
- Page 11 It is usually possible to adjust the position of the face plates by lightly tapping the top or bottom edge of the face plates with a plastic or wooden mallet. However, if the face plates do not move when tapped, you can loosen the mounting screws as described below to adjust the face plates. If the right face plate needs to be adjusted, you must first remove the left face plate. Begin by laying the fence on the table with the left face plate facing down. You can access the screws for the left face plate through the slots on the bottom of the fence. Insert a 5 mm ball end hex driver or hex key through the slot at the end of the fence and into the screw head. See Fig. 15. Loosen the screw but do not unthread it completely.
