The rip fence has two indicators. One to
use when the fence is on the right side of
the blade and one to use when the fence
is on the left side of the blade.
1. Place rip fence on saw table so that it
lightly touches the right side of the
blade and lock it in this position.

right indicator so that the red line is
located over the "zero" line of the right
rip scale and tighten screw.
