Adjusting the Fence
1.The Fence holds the work piece in a fixed position while the Table and or the blade assembly are adjusted in a miter or bevel angle.

3.Before beginning work, make a test cut on scrap material with the Table set at 90º.
4.Check the cut with an accurate square. You can also reverse the two pieces, hold the cut ends together, and hold a good straight edge along the side of the pieces.
5.If either test reveals that the cut is not a true 90º angle, you must adjust the Fence before beginning work.
6.To adjust the Fence, first unplug the tool.
7.Lower the blade assembly and lock it in place using the Locking Pin.
8.Lay a reliable carpenter’s square on the table with one edge along the blade and the other along the Fence. Any inaccuracy should be visible. NOTE: The square must contact the surface of the blade, not the teeth, for an accurate reading.
9.The Fence is held in place with bolts at each end. Loosen the bolts slightly, and gently tap the Fence into position using a soft mallet. Retighten the bolts and make another test cut. Repeat the process until the Fence is adjusted accurately.
10.Once the Fence is accurately adjusted, tighten the bolts firmly in place. Recheck one last time, then proceed to work.
