sticks may interfere with the blade guard. That flat pushboard can be made as shown in Fig. 124A.When ripping material with a veneer facing that extends over the material, the fence (A) should be in the horizontal position with the veneer (B) extending over the lip of the fence, as shown in Fig. 76.

When ripping material with a veneer facing and the material is not thick enough for the veneer to extend over the lip of the fence or if the veneer facing (B) is on both sides of the material, as shown in Fig. 77, the fence can be positioned slightly above the surface of the table. The veneer can be placed between the fence and the table or the veneer can straddle the fence with the material solidly against the fence.

ADJUSTING FENCE PARALLEL TO MITER GAGE SLOTS

The fence (A) Fig. 78, should be adjusted so it is parallel to miter gage slots (B). To check and adjust, move the fence (A) until the bottom front edge of the fence is in line with the edge of the miter gage slot as shown, and push down on fence clamping lever (C). Check to see if the fence is parallel to the miter gage slot the entire length of the table. If the rear of the fence must be moved, slightly tighten or loosen one of the adjustment plugs (D) or (E) Fig. 78, using the arbor wrench or a 7/8" wrench, until the fence is parallel with the miter gage slot. IMPORTANT:

DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN PLUGS (D) AND (E) FIG. 78.

VERY LITTLE MOVEMENT OF THESE PLUGS IS NECESSARY WHEN ADJUSTING THE FENCE PARALLEL WITH THE MITER GAGE SLOT.

ADJUSTING FENCE 90 DEGREES TO TABLE

The fence must be adjusted so that the face of fence (A) Fig. 79, is 90 degrees to the table. To check if the fence is 90 degrees to the table, place a square (B) on the table with one end of the square against the fence, as shown. If an adjustment is necessary, tighten or loosen one of two screws (C) or (D) until the fence is 90 degrees to the table.

IMPORTANT: VERY LITTLE MOVEMENT OF THESE SCREWS (C) AND (D) IS NECESSARY TO MAKE THIS ADJUSTMENT.
