Calibrating Rip
Fence
There are three adjustments that affect the accu-
racy and operation of the rip fence: 1) Height
above the table, 2) parallelism with the blade,
and 3) rip fence scale position. If your cuts are
not square when using the rip fence, check these
adjustments. Parallelism is an important safety
adjustment and the rip fence MUST be parallel
with blade to minimize the risk of kickback.
Height Above Table
The rip fence and base should ride as close to the
table surface as possible without touching it and
with an even gap along the length. This is accom-
plished by adjusting the rip fence rail and the roller
at the end of the fence base.

To adjust rip fence height above table:
1. Observe gap between fence base and table
along entire length.
— If rail end of fence body is too low, loosen
hex nuts that secure rail, raise rail until
fence body gap is even, then retighten rail
hex nuts.
— If far end of fence base is too low, remove
rail end cap, and slide fence base off rail.
Loosen acorn nut shown in
Figure 162,
adjust wheel position, retighten acorn nut,
and re-install fence base on rail.

Parallelism is an important safety adjust-
ment. Rip fence MUST be parallel with
blade to minimize risk of kickback.

To adjust rip fence parallel to main blade:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Raise main blade all the way up and tilt to 0°.
3. Slide rip fence as close to main blade as pos-
sible and check the gap that remains.
— If gap between rip fence and main blade is
not even at both ends, loosen rail hex nuts
and adjust one end in or out until fence is
parallel with blade, then retighten hex nuts.
Calibrating Rip Fence Scale
Tool Needed
Qty
Hex Wrench 4mm .............................................. 1
To calibrate rip fence scale:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Make sure rip fence is parallel with main
blade, then move it against blade so that it
just touches teeth.
3. Observe reading on scale underneath rip
fence (see
Figure 163 for an example).
— If scale is not zero, loosen cap screws that
secure it to table, adjust it so it reads zero,
then retighten cap screws.
