3. Use the crosscut fence to cut 1 ⁄
2
" off of each
side of the test piece, then cut side 1 again
(make 5 cuts total).
4. Measure the test piece diagonally from cor-
ner-to-corner as shown in Figure 85.
— If both measurements are not within 1 ⁄
16
",
then the crosscut fence needs to be adjust-
ed. Proceed to
Step 6.
— If both measurements are within 1 ⁄
16
" then
you are finished with this procedure.
5. Loosen the hex nut shown in Figure 86 and
rotate the hex bolt to square the crosscut
fence.
6. Tighten the hex nut and repeat Steps 3-6.
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:
1. Make sure the blade is parallel with the slid-
ing table.
2. Prepare the scrap test piece by numbering
all four sides as shown in Figure 85.
