fence to blade
squaring the crosscut fence to the blade ensures
that cuts made with the crosscut fence will be
square. this procedure can be done by using a
piece of scrap plywood as a test piece and mak-
ing five test cuts, then adjusting the fence as
necessary.
to square the crosscut fence with the blade:
1.
make sure the blade is parallel with the slid-
ing table and that the crosscut fence is rest-
ing against the 90° stop bolt (see figure 133
for locations).
2.
prepare the scrap test piece by cutting it to
32" x 32", then number all four sides of the
test piece.
3.
use the crosscut fence to cut
side of the test piece, then cut side 1 again
(make five cuts total).
4.
measure the test piece diagonally from cor-
ner-to-corner as shown in figure 132.
— if both measurements are not within
then the crosscut fence needs to be adjust-
ed. proceed to steps 5–8.
— if both measurements are within
no adjustments need to be made. you are
finished with this procedure.
