Rear Lock Adjustment
4. Loosen the adjustment bolts at the top of the
fence shown in Figure 34.Move the straight
portion of the fence until it is parallel with the
miter slot from front to back. Retighten the
bolts.
5. Loosen the locking lever until it is approxi-
mately two-thirds engaged. Tighten the rear
adjusting screw until the rear clamp barely
touches the back rail.
6. Loosen the locking lever and slide the fence
along the rail. Return the fence to its position
at the edge of the miter slot and slowly apply
pressure to the lever. If adjustments are cor-
rect, the fence should square itself before
the rear clamp engages. If the rear clamp
engages before the fence is squared, loosen
the screw one-quarter turn and retest.

Figure 35. Attaching a sacrificial fence.
Tip: Attach a piece of
3
⁄4" thick hardwood to the
blade side of the fence as shown in Figure 35.
This will keep thin materials from wedging
between the fence and table, and will also protect
the fence from coming in contact with the blade
when dadoing or ripping thin stock. Remember to
adjust measurement scale on rail to compensate
for the thickness of the sacrificial fence.
