Grizzly G0651, G0652 owner manual Clamping Pressure and Parallelism

Clamping Pressure and Parallelism

The fence clamping mechanism adjusts the clamping pressure the right amount to hold your fence securely and position the fence parallel to the miter slot.

Remove the fence and, using a 4mm hex wrench, adjust the set screws shown in Figure 82 equally on the rear side of the front bracket.

Place the fence alongside the miter slot (Figure 83), and check the fence to miter slot parallelism. Also, check the fence clamping strength by push- ing and pulling the fence with moderate pressure by hand.

Trial-and-error will be needed to adjust the set screws so the fence is parallel to the miter slot and the clamping pressure is sufficient.

Optional: If you are cutting wet or green stock, offsetting the rear of the fence 1/64" from the blade by using the set screws in Figure 82 can help pre- vent the workpiece from binding and burning.
