Adjusting the fence

Precise adjustment of the DSG-D fence is of enormous importance, as it affects the accuracy of
all cuts made with it. To achieve optimum cutting results, always use sufficiently precise measur-
ing equipment (e.g. vernier calliper) for adjustment.
1. Swivel the fence to approxi-
mately 45° and loosen the
four M8 clamping screws
(

Figure 1).
2. Now swivel the fence to-
wards position 0 (
≙ 90°)
until the stop screws are in
contact (

Figure 2).
3. The line in the magnifying
glass for reading the swivel
angle is now congruent with
the 0 resp. 90° line on the
angle scale.
4. Clamp the turntable at this
position.
5. Insert the support block into
the fence profile, which is
approximately parallel to the
saw blade.
CAUTION: Make sure
that the support
block is in contact
with the profile!

6. Carefully push the fence with the material up to the saw blade (

Figure 3).
7. At this position, retighten the M8 clamping screws –
first on one side.
Then swivel the fence so that the two clamping
screws on the other side can be easily reached and
tighten them as well.
CAUTION: To prevent the saw blade
from being pushed out of position,
place an additional material strip to
the right of the saw blade and fix it in
place with the rip fence!

8. Make a test cut in the 0° resp. 90° position and check whether the position of the scale corresponds to the
value measured on the test piece.
