HOW TO AdJUST THE FENCE PARALLEL TO THE MITER gAUgE SLOTS
IMPORTANT: Be certain that the miter gauge slots are parallel with the blade before adjusting the fence.
Move the fence (A) Fig. 45 until the bottom edge is aligned with the edge of one of the miter gauge slots and lock it in
place with the lock clamp (B). If the fence is not parallel to the slot, raise the lock clamp, and lift the fence off of the
guide tube. Use a 3/16" hex wrench (not supplied) to tighten or loosen the adjustment screw (either C or D) Fig. 46 that
applies.
IMPORTANT: Any necessary adjustments should be very small.

screws (D) and (E) an equal amount, using a 3/16" hex
wrench. Replace the fence assembly and check for cor-
rect clamping. Repeat as necessary.
IMPORTANT: After adjustment of the clamp handle, re-
check to see that the fence and miter gauge slots are
parallel.
