RIP FENCE ADJUSTMENT (FIG. Q)
To avoid injury from an accidental start, make sure
the switch is in the OFF position and the plug is
not connected to the power source outlet.
1. The fence (1) is moved by lifting up on the handle (2)
and sliding the fence to the desired location. Pushing
down on the handle locks the fence in position.
2. Position the fence on the right side of the table, and
along one edge of the miter gauge grooves.
3. Lock the fence handle. 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 far end of the 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:
• Move the handle (2) upward and turn the adjusting
screw (5) clockwise until the rear clamp is snug.
Do not turn the adjusting screw more than 1/4
turn at a time.
• Over-tightening the adjusting screw will cause
the fence to come out of alignment.
