Cutting Height Adjustment
Loosen the guidepost lock knob (A-Fig.17) and
turn the guidepost handwheel (B-Fig.17) to
raise or lower the guide post/upper blade guide
assembly to the desired height. Then tighten
the guidepost lock knob. Note: The bottom edge
of the guide bearings should be approximately
1/4”above the top surface of the work piece.
Adjustment Cont.
Adjusting the Rip Fence Guide Scale
Slide the rip fence against the blade along the rail
and and mark a zero position on the fence bar.
Align the zero on the scale with the mark on the
fence bar (Fig.16).
Adjusting the Rip Fence/Drift
Align the fence assembly in or out until
parallel with the side of the blade by turning
the adjustment collars and the fence bolts
accordingly(A-Fig.15). If the mounting bolts have
been tightened, these will need loosened off
before this adjustment can be made. The same
adjustment can be made to compensate for blade
drift.
Check that the fence is 90 degrees to the table
using a suitable square. If no adjustments
are needed fully tighten the fence bar nuts. If
adjustment is required, raise or lower either side
of the fence rail until the fence body is 90 degree
to the table. Once set at 90 degrees, fully tighten
the fence bar nuts.
