side of the rip fence but can be removed and rein-
stalled on the left side if needed. If a cutting operation
requiresplacing the rip fence on the left side of the

Lower the frontof the rip fence into the groove on
the front rail.
• Slide the rip fence back and forth. It should move
freely with about 1/16 in. clearance between the rip
fence and table surface. If it doesn't, loosen the

• Remove the rip fence and repeat on other side of
the blade. When the fence rides smoothly,
tighten all rail hex nuts with a 12 mm wrench.
