Classic Fence requires little

adjustment since most of the features are built-
in to the fence at the factory. The primary
adjustment is to adjust the fence so it is
parallel to the saw blade.

Fence Parallelism

If your table saw has been properly adjusted,
the saw blade should be parallel to the miter
slot. Refer to your table saw manual for the
proper procedure to check and adjust the saw
blade to the miter slot correctly.

1. Locate the two setscrews on the lower edge

of the fence bracket.

See Figure 9.

ADJUSTMENTS

UNPLUG the saw power cord, and TURN

OFF the power switch before you begin

fence adjustment procedures. Accidental

saw startup while adjusting the fence will

result in serious personal injury.

2. Turn the setscrews to align the edge of the

fence to the edge of the miter slot while

alternately locking and unlocking the fence

lock lever.

3. Check to see if the fence is parallel along

the length of the miter slot, carefully slide

the tip of your finger along the edge of the

miter slot and the fence to detect a variation

in spacing.

4. Readjust the setscrews as required.

If the wood is binding when fed through the

table saw and the cut edge is burned, the fence

may need to be adjusted out slightly. Use the
setscrews to adjust the back end of the fence
approximately

" away from the miter slot.

Figure 10 shows the fence adjusted for use on
the right side of the blade.

DO NOT cut on the left side of the blade if the
fence was adjusted for cutting on the right
side of the blade.

The wood will pinch and

could cause dangerous kick-back. Readjust

the fence when changing the side of the

blade you are cutting on.
