Calibration – Left side of saw blade

Moving your TS II to the left side of the blade can be quite
useful, especially on table saws which have a blade tilt to
the right. This feature makes bevel cuts on opposing edges
of a panel safe and easy since the blade tilts away from
rather than toward the fence. The setup is easy.

Note: If your table saw blade tilts to the left, calibration on
the left side of the blade is not necessary. Remove the (4)
dual pilot rectangular nuts and stop positioners slid into the
left end of the rail earlier.

Place Ultra on the rails to the left
of saw blade

Unscrew the (4) base clamping knobs and thread the knobs
into the dual pilot rectangular nuts slid into the left end of
the rails in step 6 on page 5. Disengage the rail hooks from
the T-slots on the rails and lift the Ultra off of the table.
Carry the unit to the left end of your table saw and as you
lower the base mount onto the rails, position the (4) clamp-
ing knob assemblies directly under the slots in the base
clamps. Position the rear edge of the base mount assembly
approximately flush with the rail ends and tighten the
clamping knobs on the rear rail only, Fig. 20.

Align fence parallel to miter slot
and tighten clamping knobs and
set screws

Unlock carriage and slide the fence to the miter slot on your
table saw. Align the fence parallel to the miter slot by shift-
ing the base clamp on the front rail. Once the fence is set
parallel to the miter slot, tighten all base clamping knobs.
Then using a

" hex tool, tighten the (4) set screws

through the holes located in the base clamps, Fig. 21.

Zero fence to left side of saw blade

Unlock the carriage and move the fence to within

less than

1

" from the saw blade. Place the Ultra in

micro adjust mode and micro adjust the fence forward
until it “kisses” the saw blade, Fig. 22. After micro adjust-
ing, release the micro adjust lever and lock the carriage in
place.

Note: Whenever you return the Ultra to operation on the
right side of the blade, remember to micro adjust the fence
back to a zero reading on the micro adjust scale.

Set scale and stop positions

Slide the extra (0"–16") scale in the scale slot and

position the 0” mark under the hairline cursor. Now slide
the remaining (2) stop positioners up to the base clamps
and tighten the hex bolts. Once these stops are set, you’ll
be able to return easily to your left hand setup anytime,
Fig. 23.

Important: With right and left calibrations now complete,
reinstall blade guard and all safety equipment removed pre-
viously. Raise the saw blade and tilt to 45° to check for
clearance between the blade guard and the rear rail assem-
bly. If the rear rail interferes with the blade guard, you must
follow the instructions set out in the Blade Guard
Adjustments section of this manual.
