Scale Calibration

You may need to recalibrate the fence scale after
changing or adjusting the blade, or if the scale
is not producing accurate cuts. Recalibrate the
fence scale by adjusting the hairline indicator on
the fence and testing your adjustment by cutting
a piece of scrap wood.
To calibrate the scale:
1.
Set the fence anywhere along the scale and
locate a scrap piece of wood with at least
one straight edge. Joint the edge with a
jointer if needed to make a straight edge.
2. Holding the straight edge of the workpiece
firmly against the fence, feed the workpiece
through the saw blade with a push stick.
3. Measure the width of the cut workpiece. The
width of the workpiece should be the same
as the reading on the fence scale.
4.
If the reading on the scale is not the same
as the width of the cut workpiece, loosen the
screws on the magnifying window as shown
in Figure 38 and adjust it to match the width
of the cut workpiece.
5.
Tighten the screws and the scale is now cor-
rectly calibrated.
