Initial Fence and Scale Set Up
(In-line/mid-range position)
Initial Fence and Scale Setup (In-line/mid-range position)
Tighten the two socket head screws
through the large holes in both the
infeed and outfeed fence.
Tighten the rear mounting screws
on each of the Hi-Rise braces.
Test the in-line setup by sliding a
straight edged board down the
length of the fences. Fine-tune either the
infeed or outfeed fence as necessary.
Once the fences are located in line
with one another slide the infeed
and outfeed scales to read “0” under the
hairline cursors.

FIG. 9
In-line/mid-range position
In order to position the scales for
accurate readout, the infeed/outfeed
fences must first be positioned in-line
with one another with the adjustment
wedges at mid-range. Once the scales
are positioned you’ll easily be able to
return the infeed/outfeed fences to this
in-line/mid-range position for standard
in-line fence applications. You’ll also find
the in-line/mid-range position a good
starting point for any of the offset fence
applications. Here’s how, see Fig 9:
Loosen the rear mounting screws
on both Hi-Rise fence braces.
Loosen the two socket head screws
through the large holes in both the
infeed and outfeed fence.
Slide the rear wedge on each fence
to align the ends of the rear wedge
flush with the ends of the front wedge.

First: Loosen rear brace mounting screws
on both fence cap braces
Second: Loosen (2) socket head screws through
large holes in both infeed and outfeed fence
Third: Align ends of front
and rear wedges flush Fifth: Tighten rear
mounting screws on
both fence cap braces
Sixth: Fine tune as necessary, then slide
scales to read “0” under hairline cursor
Fourth: Re-tighten all
(4) socket head screws Note: Hi-Rise fence cap removed for clarity

Note the scale setting, then hold
the front and rear wedges together
as you slide the outfeed fence to open or
close the gap.
Make sure the scale setting is still
the same (slide the rear wedge to
adjust if necessary) then tighten the two
socket head screws through the large
holes in the fence.
Tighten the front screws on the
Hi-Rise fence brace.
Align and tighten the Hi-Rise fence
cap if it was moved to access the
fence brace screws (see Fig. 1A, page 2).
Repeat Steps 1-6 for the infeed
fence.

Follow these steps to adjust the opening
between the infeed and outfeed fences,
see Fig. 8:
Caution: When adjusting the fence
opening, never position the fence ends
closer than
1 / 8 " from the router bit.
Loosen the front mounting screw on
the Hi-Rise fence brace. You can
either use a long shank phillips screw
driver to access the screw through the
slotted opening in the red fence cap or
simply loosen the fence cap retaining
screws and pivot the fence cap to provide
access to the front fence brace screw.
Using the supplied hex key, loosen the
two socket head cap screws through
the large holes in the outfeed fence.

To avoid accidentally
changing the fence offset, it
is usually best to begin in any
Intelli-Fence setup by making
the fence gap adjustment before
setting the fence offset.

together, slide fence to open or close gap
