-22- G7209/10 14'' Table Saw
Rip Fence
The rip fence included with your Model G7209/10
14" Table Saw is designed to provide excellent
ripping accuracy when properly adjusted. There
are three main adjustments to concern yourself
with: square, parallelism and clamping pressure.
SQUARE
Place a machinist’s square against the side of the
fence. If the square does not remain flush against
both the fence and the table, adjust the nylon
screws on top of the bracket at the front of the
fence until square. See
Figure 27 .
Miter Gauge
To adjust the miter gauge so it is perpendicular to
the saw blade:
1. Loosen the lock knob on the miter gauge and
place a square against the face of the miter
body and the blade.
2. Adjust the miter body until there is no space
between the square and the blade. Tighten
the lock knob.
3. Now loosen the setscrew on the left front
side of the miter bar, adjust the pointer to 90°
and tighten the setscrew.
4. To adjust to other angles, follow Steps 1-3
using a protractor to set the angle.

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. Readjust until proper pressure is
ensured.
