3. Centralize the magnified cursor within
its range of adjustment and tighten the
screws. Mark the position of the hairline on
the front rail tube with a pencil. This is the
zero mark for applying the scale.
4. Remove the fence and apply a strip of
masking tape along the rail a
1
⁄
2
'' in from
the front edge.
5. Using the zero mark as the starting point
and the masking tape as a guide, apply the
adhesive scale to the rail. See Figure 13.
Push the scale into place with heavy thumb
pressure.
Be careful when laying the scale into position
because the scale can be stretched if too
much pressure is applied.

6. To fine tune the position of the magnified
cursor, make a test cut and adjust the
cursor to correspond with the actual width
of the test board. This method accounts
for any vibration or wobble that may be
present in the spinning blade.
Different blades may have different widths
of cutting teeth, so readjustment is required
whenever changing type or style of blade. This
procedure must be repeated every time the saw
blade is changed to maintain accuracy.
When cutting on the left side of the blade,
this scale will not be accurate. It is possible to
attach another scale (not included) which can
be set for left side cutting.
See Figure 14
. The
magnified cursor assembly can be moved to the
left side of the fence to allow for orienting a
separate scale.
Scale and Cursor
The self adhesive scale and magnified cursor
provide fast and accurate fence positioning.
1.
Loosen the adjusting screws on the
magnified cursor until the cursor can be
adjusted.
2.
Raise the table saw blade guard out of the
way. With the fence mounted on the right
side of the blade, slide it over until its left
edge touches the side of the blade.
