CHECKING RIP FENCE AND.

BLADE ALIGNMENT

The rip fence is self-aligning but should be checked before first use.

_. WARNING: Failure to align the rip fence to the blade can cause jams and kickback, resulting in serious personal injury.

•Slide the rip fence to the miter gauge groove, which is parallel to blade. Do not lock the rip fence.

•Place a framing square against the blade, with the long end under the rip fence at the front. See Figure 14. Note the distance.

•Move the square to the back and measure the length from other end of the fence. See Figure 15.

•If the distances are different, loosen the four screws around the rip fence handle with a 6 mm hex key. Alternate the order (remove the screw opposite, not next to the first one). See Figure 16.

•Hold the fence handle against the front rail and align the rip fence with the blade.

•Retighten the screws in alternating order and check the alignment.

•Repeat until the rip fence is aligned.
