7.Make note of its position and lift it up all the way. Tighten the rear adjustment screw until the rear clamp is approximately 1Ú16'' from the rail.
8.Move the lock handle back to its two-thirds position. The rear clamp should just be touching the rail. If it is too loose or too tight, lift the handle and turn the adjusting screw in small increments until the clamp is in its proper location.
NOTICE
Do not turn the adjustment screw unless the lock handle is in the up position. Damage to the clamp shoe will result if this step is not observed.
9.Loosen the locking handle and slide the fence along the rail. Return the fence to its position at the edge of the miter slot and slowly apply pressure to the handle.
10.If adjustments are correct, the fence should square itself before the rear clamp engages. If the rear clamp engages before the fence is squared, loosen the screw

Tip: Attach a piece of 3Ú4" thick hardwood to the blade side of the fence as shown in Figure 34. This will keep thin materials from wedging between the fence and table and will also protect the fence from coming in contact with the blade when dadoing or ripping thin stock. Remember to flip and adjust the mea- surement scale on the rail to compensate for the thickness of the sacrificial fence.
