Aligning Rip Fence
!WARNING To prevent personal injury, always disconnect
plug from power source before making any adjustments. The rip fence must be parallel with the SAWBLADE in order to prevent KICKBACK when ripping.
Your table saw is equipped with a
1.The blade must be parallel with the miter gauge slots and be perpendicular to table before proceeding with rip fence alignment.
2.To move the rip fence 2, raise lock handle 1 slide to desired position, and lock by pressing lock handle 1 down.

4.Loosen the two screws 3 on the top front section of the rip fence.
5.Move fence 2 until it touches the teeth and is parallel to the blade.
6.Hold fence in place and lower lock handle, check to make sure the fence stayed parallel to the blade then tighten screws (Fig. 12).
7.Clamp rip fence to check if it holds securely at front and rear. If rear is not clamped securely, unclamp fence and turn rear clamp adjustment screw 4 clockwise for increased clamping. Try clamping the fence to verify if it self aligns and clamps tightly at the front and rear. Overtightening of the rear clamp adjustment screw 4 will cause the rip fence to be
Rip Fence Pointer Adjustment
The distance of the rip fence body from the blade when ripping on the right side of the blade is determined by lining the pointer 5 with the desired dimension on the scale 6. To set the rip fence pointer 5, slide fence until it bearly contacts right side of blade, loosen pointer adjustment screw 7, adjust pointer 5 to “0” mark on lower scale 6 and tighten screw 7.
Miter Gauge Adjustment
When cross cutting and the blade set at 90º or 45º to the table, the miter gauge can be used in either slot on the table. When cross cutting and the blade is tilted, use slot on right side of table where the blade is tilted away from your hands and miter gauge.
1.To adjust the miter gauge, loosen lock knob 8 and set the miter gauge body 9 so the pointer 11 is at desired angle, then tighten lock knob 8 (Fig. 14).
2.Make a cut on a piece of scrap wood. Check it with a square to see if the piece of wood was cut at 90° (Fig. 14). If the piece of wood was not cut 90°, adjust the miter gauge body 9, tighten lock knob 8 and make additional cuts until you are certain you have made a 90° cut. If pointer 11 is not pointing to 90°, loosen set screw 15 adjust pointer and tighten set screw 15.
3.The miter gauge body 9 will stop at 90º and 45º both right and left. To rotate the miter gauge body 9 beyond these points, the stop 10 must be flipped out of the way.
Your miter gauge is also equipped with adjustable stops 12 at 90º and 45º both right and left. To adjust stops, loosen lock nuts 13 and rotate adjustment screw 14 clockwise or counter clockwise so it rest against the stop 10 at desired angle on scale and securely tighten lock nut 13 .
