Figure 20. Use of square to align fence.
2. Loosen the fence lock handle and the check-
nut on the positive stop bolt. Turn the bolt
against the tab until the fence contacts the
edge of the square evenly.
3. Tighten the checknut on the stop bolt and tilt
the fence forward, then back against the
stop. See Figure 21.

bolt.
4. Re-check with the square. Tightening the
checknut will move the stop bolt slightly, so
some trial-and-error may be necessary to
perfect your settings.
The fence can be tilted to 45° by loosening the
lock handle, lifting up the 90° positive stop tab,
and moving the fence in the desired direction. To
set the 45° tab stop:
1. Loosen checknut and lower fence until it
rests on the stop bolt. See Figure 22.
2. Using a bevel gauge set to 45°, place the
heel of the bevel on the outfeed table and the
blade against the fence.
