ASSEMBLY
4.Place the 1⁄2" flat washer over the lock knob and install the special nut from underneath the fence support as shown in Figure 15.
5.Make sure the splines on the special nut pro- trude into the adjustment slot, then insert the knob through the fence housing and thread the knob into the special nut.
Cutterhead Guard
1.Remove the setscrew from the slot in the end of the cutterhead guard shaft.
2.Rotate the spring housing clockwise (looking at the face of the knob) 1 full turn and insert the cutterhead shaft into the pivot hole as shown in Figure 16.
3.Fit the shaft slot over the tang inside the spring housing. The shaft should drop through the bottom of the housing.
4.When installed, the cutterhead guard should press firmly against the fence and should be completely covering the cutter- head as shown in Figure 17.
5.Move the cutterhead guard back and forth to make sure that it automatically returns back to its proper position against the fence and over the cutterhead.
6.Make sure the cutterhead guard has the correct return pressure. If the pressure is weak or there is no return pressure at all, remove the shaft, tighten the spring housing by rotating clockwise, and
7.Replace the setscrew at the end of the shaft, so that the cutterhead guard cannot be removed from the pivot hole.
