Extension plate

The extension plate (D, Figure 14) can be adjusted by sliding to the right or left or removed entirely.

To adjust – loosen two lock handles (E), position the extension plate and tighten the lock handles.

To remove – slide the extension plate completely off and remove the lock handles (E) and mounting hardware.

Calibrating the miter gauge

1.Place the miter gauge in one of the slots (H, Figure 14) on the table top.

2.Set the miter gauge to 90º (0º setting on the scale) by loosening the lock handle (A), then pulling the spring-loaded knob (C) out and turning the body (B) until 0º is indicated on the scale (G).

3.Measure the accuracy of the gauge against the slot with a combination square.

If adjustment is necessary:

4.Adjust the body (B) until it is perfectly square (90º) to the miter slot (H).

5.Tighten the lock handle (A).

6.Verify that the scale indicator (G) reads 0º. If further adjustment is necessary:

7.Loosen the screw (F) and adjust the indicator (G) until it reads 0º
