1. Remove and discard the old t-molding trim.

tive ways to separate the laminate from the wood side.)

3. Remove and discard the old attaching screws.

4. Discard the old side. (DO NOT REMOVE any shimming tape from the steel body of the fence.

HOW TO REMOVE THE DAMAGED SIDE

HOW TO INSTALL NEW SIDES

1. Set the fence body back on your table saw in its normal posi-

tion. Slide two 1/32" spacers under the body.

2. Use "C" Clamps (A) Fig. 1 to secure the new side to the fence

body. Use a square (B) to see if the wood side is square to the

top of the table saw.

3. If the side is not square, unclamp and remove it from the body.

Place one or more layers of masking tape along the full length

of either the top or bottom of the fence body (Fig. 2). Repeat

Steps 2 and 3 until the side is square with the table top.

4. Use the #10 screws to attach the side to the fence body.

NOTE: The holes in the replacement sides are offset so that you

can drill fresh holes in the body.

5. Turn the new side up so that it is flat and parallel to the surface

of your saw. Use a metal straightedge (A) Fig. 3 to identify high spots. Sand the high spots prior to laminating the new side.

6. Align the bottom of the plastic laminate with the bottom of the fence. You will see a small amount of laminate overhang on the top

and ends of the fence. Glue the laminate to the new side. (Recommended adhesive: 3-M Fast-Bond #10 or #30 contact cement

or their quality equivalent.)

7. Trim the excess laminate with a flush router.

8. Use a sanding block to round off the outer edge of the plastic laminate. Leave a square edge on the laminate at the bottom of

the fence closest to the tablesaw.

9. Install the t-molding and trim off any excess. Miter the t-molding to fit the corners of the new wood side.
