Fence Stops
To set the 90˚ stop:
1.Place a square on the outfeed table fairly close to the cutterhead as shown in Figure 41.

2.While holding the fence adjusting handle, loosen the check nut on the 90˚ stop screw (Figure 42). Turn the stop screw against the bracket until the fence contacts the edge of the square evenly.

3.Tighten the check nut on the stop bolt and tilt the fence back, then forward against the stop bolt.
4.Recheck with the square. Tightening the check nut will move the stop bolt slightly, so some trial-and-error may be necessary to perfect your settings.
To set the 90˚ stop:
The process for setting the 45˚ fence stop is the same as for the 90˚ stop, with the exception of using a bevel gauge set to 45˚ (Figure 43) and adjusting the fence mechanism against the 45˚ stop (Figure 42).
