Extension Cords
Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, be sure
to use one heavy enough to carry the current your
machine will draw. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in the line voltage resulting in power loss
and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to
use depending on the cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge. Remember, the smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.

Fence Movement
The fence can be moved forward or backward
across the width of the table (B, Fig. 11). It also tilts
up to 45 degrees forward and has a positive stop
at 90 degrees.
To slide fence forward or backward
When edge jointing, the fence assembly should
periodically be moved to different positions to
distribute wear on the cutterhead knives.
1. Loosen the locking handle (A, Fig. 11).
2. Push the entire fence assembly (B, Fig. 11) to
the desired position, and tighten the locking
handle.
To tilt fence forward
The fence can be tilted forward to any angle down
to 45 degrees.
1. Loosen locking handle (C, Figure 12).
2. Move the lever forward (A, Figure 12) to the
desired angle down to 45 degrees. Or you can
place your reference piece on the table and
against the fence, and adjust the fence until
the angle of the fence matches the bevel of
your gauge piece.
3. Tighten locking handle (C, Figure 12).
To tilt fence backward
1. The fence can be tilted backward up to 45°
(that is, for a total included angle of 135° from
table surface).
2. Loosen locking handle (C, Fig. 12).
3. Flip the 90° stop block (D, Fig. 12) out of the
way.
4. Move the lever back (B, Fig. 12) to the desired
angle up to 135 degrees. Or you can place

5. Tighten locking handle (C, Fig 12).
Important: When the tilted operation is finished and
the fence is returned to 90°, do not forget to flip the
90° stop block (D, Fig. 12) back to its original
position.
