WARNING!
The Fence must be properly aligned to the gauge slot to prevent kickback during
ripping.
To check for proper alignment, position the Fence next to the gauge slot and clamp Fence to the
Table by pushing down on Fence Handle. Once locked, the edge of the Fence should be
parallel to the gauge slot.

When straight cross-cutting (the Blade is set at 90º to the Table) the Miter Gauge can be used in
either table slot.

slot where the Blade is titled away from the Miter Gauge and your hands.
To operate the Miter Gauge, loosen the Miter Gauge Lock Knob (101) and move the Gauge to
the desired angle, then tighten Knob.

Miter Gauge should be regularly checked. If any adjustments are needed:
Remove the Blade Guard (113).
Raise the Blade to its highest position and adjust to Blade so that it is 90º to the Table.
Mark a Blade tooth at the front of the Table Saw with a marker.
