10-B. As in steps 8 thru 10 use the same
hardware to attach the small clamping
bracket at the other end of the shaft (Fig. 11).
DO NOT TIGHTEN HARDWARE AS FINE
ADJUSTMENTS NEED TO BE MADE.

11. The Mite-R-Slide should now be attached
to your Mast-R-Fence with a loose fit (Fig. 13).
To begin final adjustments check to make
sure the shaft is running parallel to the Mast-
R-Fence. You can sight down the length of the
fence from above the shaft to see if the shaft
is aligned with the fence. Adjust the shaft if
necessary and lightly tighten the cap screws
on top of each end bracket on the shaft.
12. Make sure the miter gauge bracket and
the miter fence are not riding against the
Mast-R-Fence. There should not be any
contact with the face of the Mast-R-Fence. If
you need to adjust the miter fence loosen the
two brass knobs on the miter gauge and
slide the fence over. Re-tighten the knobs
when complete (Fig. 14 & 15). If the miter
gauge bracket contacts the Mast-R-Fence re-
adjust the shaft assembly forward.

13. Now adjust the shaft so that it is level
from end to end. First make sure the cap
screws on the large and small clamping
brackets on the back of the fence are loose
enough to allow some movement (Fig. 16
shows large bracket). Now slide the miter
gauge on the shaft to it’s most forward
position and snug up the two cap screws on
the small fence clamping bracket. Then slide
the miter gauge back to it’s most rearward
position and snug up the four cap screws on
the large fence clamping bracket (Fig. 16).
Check the slide for a smooth action. If not
smooth slightly loosen all cap screws to
release any possible torque in the shaft. Re-
tighten cap screws and check for a smooth
sliding action. If necessary re-check the shaft
for parallel and repeat steps 11 thru 13.
ADJUSTING THE GAUGE FOR SQUARE
14. Turn the detent switch to the off position
(Fig. 17) and loosen the large knurled handle
on the miter gauge. With a square, align your
Mite-R-Slide Fence so that it is 90 degrees to
the Mast-R-Fence and tighten the miter
gauge handle to lock the position.
