FENCE ALIGNMENT:
In aligning the fence, the first step is
to
adjust the clamps. Using the lower clamp handle, check whether
it
locks the fence solidly in front. If it does not, adjust the locking action with the adjusting screw as
.
shown in Fig. 3. With the front lock clamped, clamp the rear of the fence with the upper locking han-
dle. Adjust as required by using the adjusting screw shown in Fig. 3 to obtain a good clamping action.
Move the fence so that it is in line at the front with the right-hand edge of the right-hand miter gauge
slot and lock the front clamp. The position at the rear of the table should be 1/64" to 1/32" to the
right of the edge of the miter slot. Readjust if necessary by loosening top screw and adjusting the right
and left jackscrew with a 3/8" allen wrench as shown in Fig. 4. To move the rear of the fence
to
the
right, turn the right-hand setscrew counter-clockwise and the left-hand screw clockwise. After adjustment
lock the fence mounting screw securely and wedge the setscrews tightly against the fence.
