1) Fit the hook on the tip of the rip fence into the far
guide rail on the table or sub table (R) and install and
push the rip fence forward so that the fence holder
engages with the nearmost guide rail.
To slide the rip fence on the guide rail sideways, pivot
the knob on the fence holder to the half way of its travel.
To secure the rip fence, pivot fully the knob on the fence
holder.
2) To slide the rip fence on the guide rail sideways,
return the knob on the fence holder fully without pulling
the lever on the knob.
3) To remove it, pull the lever on the knob and pivot the
knob fully forward while pulling the lever.
To check to be sure that the rip fence is parallel with the
blade, secure the rip fence 2 - 3 mm (5/64" - 1/8" ) from
the blade. Raise the blade up to maximum elevation.
Mark one of the blade teeth with a crayon. Measure the
distance (A) and (B) between the rip fence and blade.
Take both measurements using the tooth marked with
the crayon. These two measurements should be
identical. If the rip fence is not parallel with the blade,
proceed as follows:
