OPERATION
JOINTING BEVELED STOCK
(continued)
FIGURE 16
INWARD 45° ANGLE:
See Figure 16.
1. Loosen the beveling lock (A) by rotating the handle
counterclockwise.
2. Tip the fence toward the table as far as it will go.
It will stop when the fence contacts the inward 45°
stop bolts.
3. Retighten the beveling lock. Use a combination
square or carpenters square to check the tilt angle.
If it needs to be adjusted, refer to “Calibrating the
45°/90° Stops” on page 14.
When jointing with the fence tilted
inward at 45° feed the stock carefully to
ensure that the workpiece does not become trapped
between the fence and table, which can create a
dangerous situation.
CALIBRATING THE 45°/90° STOPS
Disconnect the machine from the
power source before making any
adjustments!
To ensure precise and accurate results, the 45° and 90°
Stops must accurately position the fence in relation to
the table surface.
TO CALIBRATE THE 90° STOP:
1. Loosen the beveling lock by rotating the handle
counterclockwise.
2. Ensure the 45°/90° Stop is fully-engaged and locked
in position.
3. Using a carpenter’s square, with one edge flat on
the table and the other against the fence, check
to see if the fence and table are in square. If any
adjustment is needed, proceed to step #4.
4. Loosen the retaining nut located on the 90° Stop
rod.
5. Use a flat head screwdriver to adjust the position
of the Stop rod. Refer to Figure 17. Turning the rod
clockwise reduces the fence angle while rotating it
counterclockwise increases the fence angle.
6. Re-tighten the retaining nut and re-lock the beveling
lock. Then re-check the angle using the carpenter’s
square. Continue to adjust as needed.
