CLAMPING PRESSURE
The fence-clamping mechanism has been adjust-
ed at the factory to provide the right amount of
clamping pressure to hold your fence securely.
Should it eventually need adjustment:
1. Loosen the clamping arm.
2. Remove the fence from the saw and adjust
the setscrews equally on the rear side of the
front bracket as shown in
Figure 28 .
3. Replace the fence and check the clamping
strength. Re-adjust until proper pressure is
ensured.
Figure 28. Setscrew adjustments.
PARALLELISM
Align the fence alongside the miter slot as shown
in
Figure 29 , and lock it down. If the fence is not
perfectly parallel to the miter slot:
1. Release the clamping mechanism.
2. Remove the fence from the saw and adjust
the setscrews on the rear side of the front
bracket as shown in
Figure 28 . Make very
minor adjustments and recheck by reclamp-
ing the fence along the miter slot after each
adjustment. Keep in mind that a small turn of
the setscrew can make a large difference
over the length of the fence. Be sure clamp-
ing pressure is still adequate.
