RIP FENCE OPERATION
AND ADJUSTMENTS
The rip fence can be used on either side of the saw
blade. The most common location is on the right side
and is guided by means of guide rails which are fastened
to the front and rear of the table.
1. To move the rip fence, raise the lock handle (A) Fig.
46, as far as it will go and move the fence to the desired
position on the table. When the lock handle (A) Fig. 46,
is pushed down, clamping action on the rip fence (B)
should be adequate. However, if the clamping action is
too loose or too tight, an adjustment can be made by
equally tightening or loosening two screws (C) as
necessary.
NOTE: It will be necessary to remove the
cursor (D) Fig. 48, to make this adjustment
IMPORTANT: THE BLADE FLANGE IS SET PARALLEL
TO THE MITER GAGE SLOT AT THE FACTORY AND
THE RIP FENCE MUST BE PROPERLY ALIGNED TO
THE MITER GAGE SLOT IN ORDER TO PREVENT
“KICKBACK” WHEN RIPPING
.
2. Position the fence (B) Fig. 46, along one edge of the
miter gage slot (F) as shown and lock the fence in that
position. The edge of the fence (B) Fig. 46, should line
up parallel to the miter gage slot (F). If an adjustment is
necessary, proceed as follows:
3. Tighten or loosen either of two screws (C) Fig. 46, as
necessary, until the fence (B) is parallel to the miter gage
slot.
NOTE: It will be necessary to remove the cursor (D)
Fig. 48, to make this adjustment. Readjust the clamping
action on the fence; if necessary, refer to
STEP 1 . Re-
assemble the cursor.

PERPENDICULAR TO AND LEVEL WITH THE SAW
TABLE
.
4. Using a square (G) Fig. 47, and a straight edge (H),
check to see if the rip fence (B) is perpendicular to the
saw table and that the rip fence body is level with the
saw table. If an adjustment is necessary, tighten or
loosen either of two screws (K), until the fence is
perpendicular and level with the saw table.
