Please read this owner’s manual and 

keep it at hand for reference.

Note:  The INCRA TS-LS system consists of 
three packages.  One of the packages contains 
the rails and another, the base mount unit.  
These two assemblies are covered fully by this 
owner’s manual.  The third package contains 
the INCRA LS Positioner.  Read all of this 
TS-LS owner’s manual and the 

Safety, Getting 

Acquainted 

and

 Operations

 sections of the  

LS Positioner manual.  If you have also pur-
chased one of the router table extension wings, 

complete all assembly instructions in 

this manual 

BEFORE

 attaching the 

router table.

In just about an hour or so, you 

are going to be operating one 

of the most exciting new tools in 

today’s woodshops.  Your table 
saw will undergo a transforma-

tion, and what was once an 

average saw will emerge a preci-

sion woodworking machine, one you’ll be proud 
of for years to come.  So take a few minutes to 
read over the safety information and mounting 
instructions, then grab a Phillips screwdriver 
and a set of wrenches and let’s get started.
