ADJUSTING REAR TABLE EXTENSION

1. Rear table extension should be positioned as close

as possible to the rear of the table when ripping short
work pieces.

2. Rear table extension should be pulled out fully until

the location seat prevents it from moving outward
when ripping long work pieces that require extra
support as you are completing the cut.

RIP FENCE ADJUSTMENT (FIG. Q)
1. The fence (1) is moved by lifting up on the handle (2)

and sliding the fence to the desired location. Pushing
down on the handle locks the fence in position.

2. Position the fence on the right side of the table and

along the edge miter gauge groove.

3. Lock the fence handle. The fence should be parallel

with the miter gauge groove.

4. If adjustment is needed to make the fence parallel to

the groove, do the following:

• Loosen the two screws (3) and lift up on the

handle (2).

• Hold the fence bracket (4) firmly against the front

of the saw table. Move the fence until it is parallel
with the miter gauge groove.

• Push the handle down and tighten both screws.

5. If fence is loose when the handle is in the locked

(downward) position, do the following:

• Move the handle (2) upward and turn the adjusting

nut (5) clockwise until the rear clamp is snug.

• Over-tightening the adjusting screw will cause the

fence to come out of alignment.

A WARNING

and serious injury.
