6. Checking/Adjusting the Rip Fence
When the Fence Rail and Rip Fence have been attached to the
machine, the Rip Fence should be checked to ensure that it
lies parallel to the blade.
1. Raise the blade to its full height.
2. Rest a straight-edge or similar against the blade.
3. Bring the Rip Fence up to the straight-edge and check for
parallelism.
4. If adjustment is needed, gain access to the two socket
headed screws through the two holes in the steel carrier. See
Fig 13.
5. Loosen these screws using the correct sized allen key, and
adjust the fence as required.
6. Tighten and re-check the Rip Fence when correct alignment
has been achieved.
7. Lower the blade.
7. Sliding Mitre Gauge
Note
The sliding mitre gauge fits in either of the inverted ‘T’ slots in
the machine table.
The adjustable aluminium faceplate is held in the plastic
protractor base of the mitre gauge by two ø6mm domed
headed screws and thumb nuts.
The anti-bounce device can be fitted into the socket
incorporated into the mitre gauge base. See Fig 14.
Turning the locking handle anti-clockwise allows the mitre
gauge angle to be adjusted. Use the protractor scale and
pointer and set the gauge to the desired angle. Tighten the
vertical handle when the required angle has been set.
