6. Attach the fence (D, Figure 2) to the fence
body (E, Figure 2) with four 5/16 x 3/4 hex
cap screws, four 5/16 lock washers, and
four 5/16 flat washers. Hand tighten the
screws only.
7. Place the fence assembly onto the guide rail
and against the edge of the miter slot, as
shown in Figure 2. The hook at the rear of
the fence should fit under the rear rail (see
Figure 5).
8. The fence must align parallel to the miter
slot along the entire length of the fence.
9. Lock the fence by pushing down the lock
handle (G, Figure 2). Because the screws
are only hand-tight, you can shift the fence
slightly as needed until the fence parallels
the miter slot.
10. When the fence has been properly aligned
to the miter slot, tighten the four hex cap
screws (F, Figure 2) with a 12mm wrench.
Make sure the fence remains parallel to the
miter slot as you tighten the screws. (NOTE:
This alignment will again be checked once
the guide rail has been tightened.)
11. Move the fence assembly to the other side
of the blade so that the pointer (Figure 3) on
the fence body points to “zero” on the scale.
Lock the fence by pushing the handle down.
12. Move the guide rail with the locked fence
until the fence is flush against the blade. (Do
not force the fence into the blade so that the
blade bends.) See Figure 3. Do not unlock
the fence to perform this. Move the fence
and guide rail together when establishing
the zero point.
13. Tighten the five hex cap screws that hold
the guide rail to the front rail, with a 10mm
wrench. NOTE: After tightening the guide
rail, double check that the fence is still
parallel to the miter slot. Make additional
adjustments if needed.
