Extension Cords
Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, be sure
to use one heavy enough to carry the current your
machine will draw. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in the line voltage resulting in power loss
and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to
use depending on the cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge. Remember, the smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.
Adjustments
Fence Movement
The fence can be moved forward or backward
across the width of the table. It also tilts up to 45
degrees forward and has a positive stop at 90
degrees.
The fence assembly should periodically be moved
to different positions when edge jointing to
distribute wear on the cutterhead knives.
Referring to Figure 13:
To slide the fence forward or backward:
1. Loosen the lock handle (A).
2. Push the entire fence assembly to the desired
position, and tighten the locking handle.
To tilt fence forward:
The fence can be tilted forward to any angle down
to 45 degrees.
1. Loosen the lock handle (B).
2. Adjust the fence to the desired level down to
45 degrees. Or you can place your reference
piece on the table and against the fence, and
adjust the fence until the angle of the fence
matches the bevel of your gauge piece.
3. Tighten lock handle (B).
To tilt fence backward:
The fence can be tilted backward up to 45° (that is,
for a total included angle of 135° from table
surface).

1. Loosen
lock handle (B).
2. Flip the 90° stop block (C) out of the way.
3. Adjust the fence to the desired angle up to 135
degrees. Or you can place your beveled
reference piece on the table and against the
fence, adjusting the fence until the angle of the
fence matches the bevel of your reference
piece.
5. Tighten lock handle (B).
Important: When the tilted operation is finished and
the fence is returned to 90°, do not forget to flip the
90°
stop block C) back to its original position.
