FENCE ASSEMBLY
Align the Fence Parallel to the Blade
1. Disconnect and lockout power to the saw!
2. Slide the fence over to the right T-slot on the saw table
top.
3. Lock down the fence handle and make a visual check
that the fence is parallel with the T-slot along the entire
length. Also, you can place a small 3/4” thick block of
wood, upright into the T-slot and slide it from the front to
the back checking its distance from the left edge of the
fence.
4. If the fence is not parallel, it can be adjusted by using an
Allen wrench to turn one or both of the screws (C) or (D).
Do this slowly, just an eighth to a quarter turn at a time, or
you will quickly overshoot the desired adjustment.
Note:
It is always good practice to periodically
recheck the alignment of your fence to the blade.
Align the Rip Fence Perpendicular (90°) to the Table
1. Disconnect and lockout power to the saw!
2. Place a machinist square on the table against the
fence and look for a gap between the square and the
fence (bottom and top) or the table.
3. If needed, adjust either of the two plastic set screws to
tilt the fence slightly and square it to the table.
WARNING:
The rip fence must be parallel to the blade during operation.
Failure to set the rip fence parallel to the blade can result in kickback and possible
serious injury.
