Fence Alignment
If the face of the fence is not parallel to the saw blade (cut line), the resulting rip cut will yield a workpiece that is wider at one end or the other.
To adjust the fence alignment:
1.Rip cut a scrap workpiece.
2.Measure the width at each end of a workpiece that has been cut on the rip saw.
—If end A is wider than end B, then the tip of the fence needs to be adjusted to the left to make the fence parallel to the blade (Figure 26).
