Note which side of the indicator the hairline is
imprinted on. Orient the indicator with the hairline
mark face down against the front rail. The hairline
is imprinted off center to simplify adjustment of
the indicator if the fence is faced with

center to the right as viewed from above. If the

The indicator can be shimmed downward for bet-

that may seem to occur between the hairline and
the marks on the scale when viewed from any

To fine tune the position of the hairline indicator,
make a test cut and adjust the indicator to corre-
spond with the actual width of the test board. This
method accounts for any vibration or wobble that
may be present in the spinning blade. This proce-
dure must be repeated every time the saw blade is
changed to maintain accuracy.
