beam, allow the face to rest on the table top, and
retighten the wing nuts.

3. Slide the fence so the face is in line with the edge of the

miter slot.

4. Adjust the beam angle to the miter slot as follows;

a. Loosen the farthest two torx screws (A) so the beam

will pivot on the third. Don’t over loosen the screws,
slightly loose works best.
b. Loosen the pivot screw (A) just enough to pivot
beam, but snug enough not to prevent beam from
moving side to side.
c. Lock fence head to front rail.
d. Parallel the fence face to the miter slot.

e. Tighten all three screws (A) which hold the fence
beam to the head, starting with the rearmost two.

Now the beam is square to the table.
STEP 18. Adjust the fence face height and position

(Fig. 9). Loosen the wing nuts that retain the fence face
to the beam. Lift the fence face and slide 16 pages of the
instruction manual or other paper between the face and

(Fig. 7). Remove the three flat head screws which
secure the cover plate to the fence head with the
T50 Torx wrench. Turn the beam upside down.
Slide the fence head into the beam as shown. Flip
the beam over and install the cover plate and three
screws snug but not tight.

STEP 17.

Adjusting Fence to Table Top (Fig. 8)

Check alignment of beam and fence face before each
cutting session.

SQUARE FENCE FACE TO TABLE TOP
1. Make sure all surfaces are clean of sawdust.
2. Make sure the lock knobs (B) are secure.
3. Lock the beam in place with handle (C).
4. Using a square (D), check the fence face angle to the

table top.

5. If an adjustment is necessary, loosen the three torx

screws (A) just slightly and slide the beam to re-align the
face (See Detail A).

6. Tighten the three torx screws (A).
7. Recheck alignment to the table.

PARALLEL FENCE TO BLADE
1. Place fence on rails, near the right-hand miter slot.

Ensure that the rear glide is located correctly. See step
19.

2. Loosen the wing nuts (B) retaining the face to the fence

the table. This will set the height of the face
approximately 1/16” off of the table top. The face can
also be adjusted forward and back to suit your
preference. Tighten the wing nuts to secure the face.
When cutting very thin material, the fence face can be
adjusted so that it rests on the table top. Be sure to re-
adjust the face to about 1/16” before sliding the fence.

STEP 19. Adjust the rear fence glide (Fig. 10). If

necessary, adjust the rear glide to locate it correctly
against the rear rail by loosening the two screws which
secure it to the fence beam. The plastic retaining clip
should be deflected somewhat when the glide is
positioned correctly. This adjustment should only be
necessary if the rear rail has been relocated by the
addition of an optional accessory.

STEP 20. To install the saw blade (Fig.11), remove the

arbor nut (A) and outer clamp washer(B), then slip the
blade over the spindle and re-install the washer and nut.
Use the spindle lock wrench to hold the shaft while
tightening the nut with the blade wrench. Make sure the
blade is installed correctly for the rotation of your saw.
The cutting teeth should face the front of the saw.

STEP 21. Adjust the fence scale indicator (Fig. 12).

Slide the fence until it just touches the blade. Loosen the
fence indicator screw and slide it until the hairline aligns
with the “0” line on the scale. Tighten the screw. If the
