Set final base assembly 

position

Loosen the (4) base clamping knobs and slide 
the base assembly to locate the near side of 
the base support panel at 37 1/4” from the 
saw blade.  See 

Fig. 14

.  Tighten the clamping 

knobs in place.  Using a 3/16” hex tool, tighten 
the (4) set screws through the holes located 
in the base clamps.  If you have the 72” Rails, 
slide the (2) stop positioners up against the 

rear

 edge of the base clamps as shown and 

tighten the hex bolts.  Should you ever need to 
remove the base assembly from your table saw, 
these stop positioners will allow you to return to 
the original setup in seconds.

92” RAIL NOTE:

  If you are setting up an 

extended capacity system using the 92” rails, 

DO NOT

 tighten the stop positioners just yet.  

Instead, assemble the Floating Stops shown 
in the TIP on page 12 and slide them up to 
the 

front

 edge of both base clamps (the edge 

nearest the blade) and tighten in place.  After 
completing all of the setup and calibration 
instructions from this manual, refer to the 
“EXTENDED CAPACITY INSTRUCTIONS” 
included in the 92” Rail box to complete your 
setup.

Align base mount assembly 

parallel to miter slot

Take the base mount assembly to the table 
saw and, as you lower the base mount onto the 
rails, position the (4) clamping knob assemblies 
directly under the slots in the base clamps.  
Slide the base assembly along the rails to 
position the base support panel at 20” from 
the miter slot, 

Fig. 13

.  Take a measurement 

at both ends of the panel.  Loosen the Phillips 
head screws that hold the base clamps as 
necessary to align the panel parallel to the 
miter slot.  Tighten all (8) screws that secure 
the base clamps to the base support panel.  
Replace the base support panel end caps.
