h7583 tenoning Jig
DO NOT remove the T-slot washer from the
ends of the tenoning jig guide bar. Removal
of the washer will allow the tenoning jig to
come loose from the table during a kickback
situation, possibly causing a serious per-
sonal injury or property damage.
Guide bar
adjustment
in this procedure you will adjust the guide bar so
that it slides back-and-forth in the table saw miter
slot without side-to-side play or tilt that would
make the operation unsafe or produce poor cut-
ting results.
To adjust the guide bar:
1. disConnECt tABlE sAW FroM
poWEr!
2. insert the tenoning jig guide bar into the table
saw miter slot, then slide it back-and-forth.
— if the guide bar fits snugly, but slides freely
in the miter slot, no adjustment is neces-
sary to the guide bar. Continue with the
Side Support adjustment procedure on
this page.
— if side-to-side play or tilt exists, continue
with
Step 3.
3. remove the jig from the table saw and turn it
upside down, as shown in
figure 13.
4. Evenly adjust the set screws shown in figure
13 the same amount so that they protrude
from the guide bar enough to take up the
side-to-side play experienced in
Step 2.
5. Make sure the cap screws securing the t-slot
washers are tight.
6. repeat Steps 2–5 until you are satisfied with
the movement of the guide bar in the saw
miter slot.
Side Support
adjustment
in this procedure you will adjust the side support
so it is perpendicular to the table of the saw. then
you will set the 90° positive stop so the support
can be quickly returned to the perpendicular posi-
tion after an angle cut.
To adjust the side support:
1. disConnECt tABlE sAW FroM
poWEr!
2. Make sure the saw blade is perpendicular
to the table miter slot (refer to your owner's
Manual for the table saw for instructions).
3. Completely lower the saw blade so that it will
not interfere with the measurements.
4. Clean away any debris from the table or jig
that could affect the measurements, then
insert the jig all the way into the miter slot.
