(5) Make sure that the rip fence can be slid
smoothly with no wobble when the knob is
rotated half way through its rotation.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to tighten screws with more than the
tightening amount specified in the above

fastened parts.

Make sure that the guideline on the fence holder points
to the 0 graduation. If the guideline does not point to the
0 graduation, loosen the screw on the scale plate and
