ADJUSTING THE MITRE GAUGE (FIG. U)
1. Loosen the lock handle (1) to allow the mitre body (2)
to rotate freely. Position the mitre body at 90° so the
positive detent secures its position. Tighten the lock
handle to hold the mitre body in position.
2. If the pointer (3) requires adjustment, loosen the
screw under the pointer with a screwdriver. Adjust
the pointer to 90° on the scale, then firmly tighten
the adjustment screw.
3. To change angles on the mitre gauge, loosen the
lock handle (1) and rotate the mitre body to the
desired angle as indicated by the scale. Secure in
position by tightening the lock handle.

RIP FENCE ADJUSTMENT (FIG. V)
1. For adjustments, position the fence to the right of
the blade, parallel with the mitre gauge groove.
2. Place the rear clamp (1) of the fence on the back
rail of the table, and lower the front end over the
front rail (2). Push the handle (3) down to lock.
3. To change the position of the fence, lift up on the
handle to unlock, and slide the fence to the desired
position, then push the handle down to lock.
4. To check the rip fence adjustment, place the fence
along one edge of the mitre gauge groove, and lock
the handle. It should be parallel to the mitre groove
to provide accurate cuts.
If an adjustment is needed to make it parallel:
1. Loosen the two hex bolts (4) on the top of the rip
fence, and lift up on the handle (3).
2. Adjust the fence (5) so it is parallel to the mitre
gauge groove and lock the handle (3) into position.
3. Make sure the fence (5) is parallel to the groove and
tighten the two hex bolts (4) securely.
4. Unlock the fence handle (3) and slide the fence left
and right, then reposition it against the mitre gauge
groove again and lock into position to double check
its alignment.
If the fence is loose when the handle is in the locked
position:
1. Move the handle upward to the unlocked position.
Turn the adjusting screw (6) clockwise until the rear
clamp is snug.
2. DO NOT turn the adjusting screw more than 1/4 turn
at a time.
3. Over-tightening the screw will cause the rip fence to
come out of alignment.
Failure to properly align the fence can cause
“kickback” and serious injury could occur.

RIP FENCE INDICATOR (FIG. W)
NOTE:
The rip fence indicator points to the scale on the
front of the table saw. The measurement shown by the
indicator will provide the user with accuracy up to 1/16 of
an inch. The measurement shown is the distance from
the blade to the side of the fence closest to the blade.
1. To check the accuracy, measure the actual distance
to the side of the rip fence. If there is a difference
between the measurement and the indicator, adjust
the indicator as shown next.
2. Loosen the indicator screw (2). Slide the indicator to
the correct measurement position on the scale, then
retighten the screw (2).
