Checking Fence Parallelism
1. Slide the fence along the rail. If it drags
across the table, then adjust the foot at the
rear of the fence with a 6mm hex wrench to
raise the fence off of the table, just enough so
that the gap between the fence and the table
is even from front to back.
2. Slide the fence up against the right hand edge
of the miter slot, and lock it in place. Examine
how the fence lines up with the miter slot.
Note: It's permissible for the back of the
fence to pivot outward no more than
1
⁄
64
" from
being parallel to the blade. This creates a
larger opening between the fence and the
blade, at the rear of the blade, to reduce
the risk of workpiece binding or burning as
it is fed through the cut. Many woodworkers
intentionally set up their fence in this man-
ner. Keep this in mind before adjusting your
fence.

— If the fence/miter slot are still parallel with
the blade, proceed to
Fence Scale.
— If the fence is not parallel to the blade/miter
slot, then you MUST adjust the fence, as
described in
Fence Adjustments on Page
69, so that it is parallel to the blade.
—If the miter slot is not parallel with the blade,
you must follow the procedures described
in
Miter Slot to Blade Parallelism on
Page 67.
Fence Scale
Since the adhesive fence scale will be difficult to
remove once it installed, determine whether you
will use the pointer window on the right or the left
side of the fence before installing the scale.
The pointer window may come pre-installed on
the left side of the fence. However, we recom-
mend loosening the mounting screws on the
window and reinstalling it on the right side of
the fence (see
Figure 31) so workpieces will not
cover the pointer window when preparing to cut.

On the Model G0690, if you move the pointer win-
dow to the right side of the fence, you may have
to trim the last two inches of the scale so it will not
protrude past the end of the fence tube.
One option for using the pointer window on the left
side of the fence is to use it in conjunction with a
small, left-reading scale (not included).
