3. Tighten locking handle (B, Figure 14).
To tilt fence backward:
The fence can be tilted backward up to 45° (that is, for a total angle of 135° from table surface).
1. | Loosen locking handle (B, Figure 16). |
|
2. | Flip the 90° stop block (E, Figure 16) out of |
|
| the way. |
|
3. | Rotate handwheel (C, Figure 16) until the |
|
| desired angle is indicated on the scale (D, |
|
| Figure 16). Or you can place your beveled |
|
| workpiece on the table and against the |
|
| fence, and rotate the handwheel (C, Figure | Figure 16 |
| 16) until the angle of the fence matches the | |
| bevel of your workpiece. |
|
4. | Tighten locking handle (B, Figure 16). |
|
IMPORTANT: When the tilted operation is finished and the fence is returned to 90°, do not forget to flip the 90° stop block (F, Figure 16) back to its original position.
Fence Stops
Periodically check the 90° and 45° tilt accuracy of the fence with an angle measuring device, such as an adjustable square or machinist’s protractor. If adjustments are necessary, proceed as follows:
Setting the 90° Stop
1.The 90° stop is controlled by the screw (F, Figure 16) and the stop block (E, Figure 16).
2.Loosen the locking handle (B, Figure 16) and loosen the hex nut on the screw (F, Figure 16).
3.Set your angle measuring device to 90 degrees, and place it on the table and against the fence.
4.Move the fence until it fits flush against the angle measuring device. Turn the screw (F, Figure 16) until the screw contacts the stop block (E, Figure 16).
5.Tighten the hex nut on the screw (F, Figure 16) and the lock handle (B, Figure 16).
Setting the 45° Forward Stop
1.The 45° forward stop is controlled by the screw (H, Figure 17).
2.Loosen the locking handle (B, Figure 16) and loosen the hex nut on the screw (H, Figure 17).
3.Set your angle measuring device at 45°. Place it on the table and against the fence, and tilt the fence until it is flush against the 45° angle.
