THE SLIDING UPPER FENCE SECTION (Fig. 27)
The Left Hand side of the machines Fence has an adjustable
Upper section. This section can slide to the left by a
maximum of approximately 100mm.
Note: To prevent the Sliding Upper section from being
removed completely (and thus possibly being lost) the
Sliding Upper section is 'captive' on the Lower Fence.
Adjustment may be necessary when certain acute bevel or
compound angles are selected to provide clearance for the
moving cutting head and blade as a cut is made.
To adjust the sliding fence:
• Loosen the thumbscrew. (Fig. 28)
• Slide the upper section of the Fence leftwards to the
required position and tighten the thumbscrew.
• Conduct a 'dry run' with the battery removed to confirm
that there is no interference between moving parts as the
cutting head and blade are lowered to make a sliding cut.

MACHINE FENCE ALIGNMENT

The Fence must be aligned at 90˚ (square) to a correctly
installed blade. The Rotary table must be set at '0˚' mitre
angle.
The Fence is fastened to the table with three socket head
Hex screws (Fig. 29), one to the left hand side and two to the
right hand side. All three are located through elongated slots
machined into the fence casting.
• Ensure that the cutting head is in the locked down position
with the latching pin fully engaged.
• Place a set square on the table with one edge against the
Fence and the other edge against the Blade (avoiding the
TCT tips). (Fig. 30)
• If adjustment is necessary, loosen the three (3) Fence
adjustment screws using a Hex Key.
• Re-position the Fence in its elongated slots until alignment
is achieved.
• Securely tighten the socket head Hex screws.
