Rip Fence Indicator

The rip fence indicator points to the scale on the front of the table saw. The measurement shown by the indicator will provide the user with accuracy up to 1/16 of an inch. The measurement shown is the distance from the blade to the side of the fence closest to the blade.

To check the accuracy:

1.Measure the actual distance to the side of the rip fence.

If there is a difference between the measurement and the indicator, adjust the indicator as follows:

2.Loosen the indicator screw (A, Fig. 26).

3.Slide the indicator to the correct measurement position on the scale, then retighten the screw.

Table Extension Scale Pointer

The table extension scale pointer (A, Fig. 27) should be at 13 inches on the scale when the extension is in the closed position. If adjustment is required, loosen the holding screw (B, Fig. 27), position the pointer over the 13 inch marker and re- tighten the screw.

Rear Table Extension Adjustment

The rear table extension (A, Fig. 28) should be positioned as close as possible to the rear of the table when ripping short material.

The rear table extension should be fully extended when ripping longer materials that require extra support.

Adjusting the Locking Lever

If the extension table moves when it is open and locked in place, the cam locking lever (A, Fig. 29) may be loose and require adjustment.

To adjust the locking lever tension:

1.Hold the stud (B) stationary, and loosen the nut

(C) with a 10 mm wrench.

2.Rotate the rod using a wrench on one of the flats (D). Do not overtension!

3.Re-tighten the nut (C).
