Fine tuning the miter fence.
Several methods are acceptable to fine-tune the fence but we have found that the
following is a very practical way to achieve a square panel.
1 / Clamp the fence locked at 90 degrees against the stop.
2
/ Clamp a sheet onto the sliding table and cut a straight edge [edge “A”]. Mark “A”.
3
/ Move the sheet so that edge “A” is tight against the fence, clamp in position, cut edge
“B” and mark “B”.
4
/ Flip the sheet so that edge “A” is still against the fence but edge “B” is furthest away
from the saw blade, cut edge “C” and mark “C”.
5 / If the sheet is cut square edge B and C should be parallel. Check this by measuring
across the width of the sheet at both ends.
Note. This method will double the amount of error and any adjustment that is required
should be halved. Also the stop is closer to the table than the end of the sheet, so only
adjust the flip stop in very small amounts. Example. You are using a 2’x 2’ sheet and you
are out of parallel by 1/16”, adjust the stop =- 0,01” and repeat the cuts.
