WARNING:
To reduce the risk of injury, always make sure the
rip fence is parallel to the blade before beginning
any operation.
TO SET THE RIP FENCE SCALE INDICATOR
TO THE BLADE
See Figure 29.
Use the indicator on the rip fence to position the fence along
the scale on the front rail.
NOTE: The anti-kickback pawls and blade guard assembly
must be removed to perform this adjustment. Reinstall the
blade guard assembly when the adjustment is complete.
Begin with the blade at a zero angle (straight up).

Unplug the saw.
 Loosen the rip fence by lifting the locking lever.

Using a framing square, set the rip fence 2 in. from the
blade tip edge, then relock the lever.

Loosen the screw on the scale indicator and align with
the 2 in. mark as shown.

Tighten the screw and check the dimension and the rip
fence.
TO USE THE RIP FENCE
See Figure 30.
 Loosen the rip fence by lifting the locking lever.

Place the rear lip on the rear of the saw table and pull
slightly toward the front of the unit.

Lower the front end of the rip fence onto the guide
surfaces on top of the front rail.

Check for smooth gliding action.

Position the rip fence the desired distance from the blade.
 With the rip fence flat on the saw table, push the fence
towards the front rail to align the fence to the miter gauge
groove.

Push the locking lever down to align and secure the
fence. When securely locked, the locking lever should
point downward.
Check for a smooth gliding action. If adjustments are needed,
see To Check the Alignment of the Rip Fence to the Blade
in the
Adjustment
section of this manual.
TO USE THE MITER GAUGE
See Figure 31.
The miter gauge provides accuracy in angled cuts. For very
close tolerances, test cuts are recommended.
There are two miter gauge channels, one on either side of
the blade. When making a 90° cross cut, you can use either
miter gauge channel. When making a beveled cross cut (the
blade tilted in relation to the table) the miter gauge should
be located in the slot on the right so that the blade is tilted
away from the miter gauge and your hands.
The miter gauge can be turned 60° to the right or left.
