a. On the left side of the panel saw, temporarily place the fence shelf on top of the horizontal cross member of the panel saw frame which is approximately 30" from the floor. See Figure 24. This will space the left hand fence bracket the correct distance off the horizontal cross member.

b.Place the left hand fence bracket (bracket with scale reading right to left) on top of the fence shelf (with the scale side of the bracket facing out).

c.Align the left side of the bracket with left end of the horizontal cross member. (Note: There should be approximately a 1/2" gap between the bracket and the right end of the horizontal cross member, as shown in Figure 25).
