series table saws. The rails should bolt up to the
JET saw without any drilling.
Front Rail Installation
Referring to Figures 1 and 2:
1. Identify the front rail (E), which is
2-1/2" x 2-1/2" with notches on one side and
countersunk mounting holes on the other side.
2. Lightly secure the front rail (E) to the table (G)
and extension wings (F) with four each 1/4 x 1-
1/2 flat head screws (A), 1/4” flat washers (B),
1/4” lock washers (C) and 1/4” hex nuts (D).
Tighten just enough to hold the rail next to the
table but keep loose enough to allow height
adjustment.
The front rail must be 9/16" down from the table
top in order to clear the miter gauge slot. This
measurement is critical.
3. Place an adjustable square on the table as
shown in Figure 3.
4. Check the height of the front rail at several
locations along the surface of the saw table.
The front rail must be parallel with the table
top.
When the front rail has been correctly positioned:
5. Use a #3 cross point screwdriver and 7/16"
wrench to tighten all mounting screws
securely. However, do not tighten hardware for
the left extension table (shown in F, Fig. 1).
The hardware that secures the left extension
table should be left loose to accommodate the
switch installation (below).
Switch Installation
At this time refer to your JTAS-10, JTAS-12 or
XACTA
®
Saw manual and attach the switch as
described in the Switch Installation section. The
switch should be attached before the guide tube
installation covered later in this manual.
