Wooden Extension Table The wooden extension table is an optional
accessory.
Tools required
Electric drill
Cross point screwdriver
7/16" and 1/2" wrenches
Four clamps
Straight edge
Hammer (or rubber mallet)
Installation
The optional wood extension table (including the
optional router table) sits flush against the saw
table and along the inside of the rails. The JET
logo (or warning label on the router table) should
face outward. The extension table is not bolted to
the saw table, it is bolted only to the rails.
The extension table and saw table must be aligned
properly so the XACTA Fence II will slide smoothly
from one to the other.
1. Place the extension table between the rails
and up against the saw table, leaving the
extension table raised just slightly above the
saw table. Clamp the extension table to the
front and back rails as shown in Figure 7.
Clamping pressure should be enough to
secure the table yet allow minor adjustments.
2. Use a hammer and block of wood (or a rubber
mallet) to tap the extension table up flush
against the cast iron saw table (Figure 7).
Then tap down the extension table at various
points along its edge where it meets the saw
table, until it is level with the saw table
(Figure 8). As one part of the edge becomes
level with the table, tighten the clamp on that
side. Then move to the other side and repeat,
until the full length of the edge is level with the
saw table. Lay a straight edge across both
extension table and saw table to ensure proper
leveling.
When extension table is properly aligned, holes
need to be drilled into the wood table using the
holes in the rails as your guide (Figure 9). You may
wish to drill 3/32" pilot holes first.
3. Drill 1/4" holes into the front edge of the table
using the holes in the front rail as a guide. Drill
1/4" holes into the back edge of the table using
the holes in the back rail as a guide.
4. Install three 1/4 x 1-1/2 flat head screws, three
1/4 flat washers, and three 1/4 hex nuts into
the holes in the front edge of extension table
