Fence Scale

Calibration

You may need to recalibrate the fence scale after changing or adjusting the blade, or if the scale is not producing accurate cuts. Recalibrate the fence scale by adjusting the hairline indicator on the fence and testing your adjustment by cutting a piece of scrap wood.

Tools Needed

Qty

Phillips Screwdriver #1

1

To calibrate the scale:

 

1.Set the fence anywhere along the scale and locate a piece of scrap wood with at least one straight edge.

Note: Joint the edge with a jointer if needed to make the edge straight.

2.Hold the straight edge of the workpiece firmly against the fence, and feed the workpiece through the saw blade with a push stick.

3.Measure the width of the cut workpiece. The width of the workpiece should match the reading on the fence scale.

-54-

4.If the reading on the scale is not the same as the width of the cut workpiece, loosen the two screws on the magnifying window (see Figure 69) and adjust it to match the width of the cut workpiece.

5.Re-tighten the screws—the scale is now cor- rectly calibrated.
