Scale and Cursor

The self adhesive scale and magnified cursor provide fast and accurate fence positioning.

1.Loosen the adjusting screws on the magnified cursor until the cursor can be adjusted.

2.Raise the table saw blade guard out of the way. With the fence mounted on the right side of the blade, slide it over until its left edge touches the side of the blade. See

Figure 12.

Figure 12. Fence contacting the blade.

3.Centralize the magnified cursor within its range of adjustment and tighten the screws. Mark the position of the hairline on the front rail tube with a pencil. This is the zero mark for applying the scale.

4.Remove the fence and apply a strip of masking tape along the rail a 12'' in from the front edge.

5.Using the zero mark as the starting point and the masking tape as a guide, apply the adhesive scale to the rail. See Figure 13. Push the scale into place with heavy thumb pressure.

Be careful when laying the scale into position because the scale can be stretched if too much pressure is applied.

6.To fine tune the position of the magnified cursor, make a test cut and adjust the cursor to correspond with the actual width of the test board. This method accounts for any vibration or wobble that may be present in the spinning blade.

Different blades may have different widths of cutting teeth, so readjustment is required whenever changing type or style of blade. This procedure must be repeated every time the saw blade is changed to maintain accuracy.

When cutting on the left side of the blade, this scale will not be accurate. It is possible to attach another scale (not included) which can be set for left side cutting. See Figure 14. The magnified cursor assembly can be moved to the left side of the fence to allow for orienting a separate scale.
