4.1 Fence Assembly and Fences
Caution
For this procedure, we recommend using two people.
PARTS REQUIRED:
• Fence assembly
TOOLS REQUIRED:
• Allen wrench set
• Adjustable wrench
The fence should always be used for straight work cutting to guide
the workpiece.
The fence has two halves: An infeed fence and an outfeed fence.
Both must be installed to the fence assembly. The infeed fence is on
the right as you face the machine; the outfeed fence is on the left.
The cast iron fence assembly is adjustable, and the slotted
aluminum fences can be adjusted to maximize safety and allow
precision shaping for every cutter used on the machine. Independent
fine adjustments and digital readouts are included to precisely
position infeed and outfeed fences. Quick fence changeovers
provide the flexibility needed to create quality profiles in a short time.
Fence assembly
(front and back views).
1. Locate the bracket at the rear of the table. Remove the screws
from the horizontal arm of the bracket and set them aside.
2. Place the fence assembly body on the rear of the table as
shown, aligning the forward set of pilot holes with the
bracket holes.
3. Reattach the screws to secure the fence to the bracket. Do not
fully tighten.
4. Fasten locking bars to the front of each fence block half using
the locking lever and washer. Locking levers are spring-loaded
and can be repositioned by pulling out the handle or by using
an Allen wrench.
5. With the locking levers loosened, slide the infeed fence half and
outfeed fence halves onto the locking bars. Be sure the beveled
end of each fence faces the center of the table. Tighten each
fence using its locking lever and washer.

6. Locate the two fence locking handles and washers. Attach
the handles in the slots. Position the fence so that the locking
handles align with the forward two sets of holes located on the
machine table. Tighten the locking handles.
7. To reposition the complete fence assembly on the table, loosen
the two locking handles, move the fence assembly to the
desired position, and tighten the two locking handles.
