Squaring the crosscut fence to the blade ensures that
cuts made with the crosscut fence will be square. This
procedure can be done by using a piece of scrap plywood
as a test piece and making five test cuts, then adjusting
the fence as necessary.
To square the crosscut fence with the blade, do these
steps:
(% Make sure the blade is parallel with the sliding table
and that the crosscut fence is resting against the 90°
stop bolt (see =`^li\('* for locations).
)% Prepare the scrap test piece by cutting it to 32" x
32", then number all four sides of the test piece.
*% Use the crosscut fence to cut
1
⁄2" off of each side of
the test piece, then cut side 1 again (make five cuts
total).
+% Measure the test piece diagonally from corner-to-
corner as shown in =`^li\(').
— If both measurements are not within
1
⁄16", then
the crosscut fence needs to be adjusted. Proceed
to Jk\gj,Æ/.
— If both measurements are within
1
⁄16" then no
adjustments need to be made. You are finished
with this procedure.
,% Loosen the knob on the crosscut fence to allow it to
pivot (make sure 90° stop bolt remains against the
fence during adjustments).
-% Loosen the hex nut on the 90° stop bolt shown in
=`^li\('*, and rotate the 90° stop bolt to square
the crosscut fence.
.% Tighten the hex nut on the 90° stop bolt, then tight-
en the crosscut fence knob, making sure the block is
touching the 90° stop bolt.
/% Repeat Jk\gj*$+.
