21. Slide fence up against right-hand edge of
miter slot, and lock it in place. Examine how
fence lines up with miter slot.
Note: It is permissible for back of fence to
pivot outward not more than
parallel with miter slot. This creates a slightly
larger opening between fence and blade, at
rear of blade, to reduce risk of workpiece
binding or burning as it is fed through cut.
Many woodworkers intentionally set up their
fence in this manner. Keep this in mind
before adjusting your fence. For more details,
see Figure 129 on Page 73.

— If fence is still parallel with miter slot, pro-
ceed to Step 22.
— If fence is not parallel with miter slot, then
you MUST adjust fence, as described in
Fence Adjustments on Page 71, so that
it is parallel.
—If miter slot is not parallel with blade, you
must follow procedures described in Miter
Slot to Blade Parallelism on Page 67.
22. Carefully slide fence so it barely touches saw
blade and lock it in place.
