Fence Angle Stops - Grizzly G0612 Owner's Manual

Fence Angle Stops

You can quickly set the fence angle at 90º (per-
pendicular to the tables), 45º inward, and 45º out-
ward. This section provides instructions for setting
the fence stops precisely at these angles.
Before making these adjustments, take a moment
to identify the various stop parts of the fence
bracket assembly (see Figure 23).

To set the 90º stop:
1.
DISCONNECT THE JOINTER FROM THE
POWER SOURCE!
2.
With the fence positioned over the bed and
the with the sliding handle locked, loosen the
fence tilting handle.
3.
Press the forward tab of the limit plate into
the rear slot of the limit block.
4.
Pull the fence as far as it will go towards 90º
(perpendicular to the table), then tighten the
fence tilting handle.
Note: When you pull the fence towards 90º,
it will stop when it hits the limit block shaft.
5.
Use a machinist's combination square to
check the angle of the fence as shown in
Figure 24.
Figure 24. Checking the 90º stop.
—If the fence is perpendicular to the table
according to the machinist's square, the
90º stop is set correctly; move ahead to set
the 45º stops.
—If the fence is not perpendicular to the
table, adjust the 90º stop by doing Steps
6-9.
