6.Attach the fence (D, Figure 2) to the fence body (E, Figure 2) with four 5/16 x 3/4 hex cap screws, four 5/16 lock washers, and four 5/16 flat washers. Hand tighten the screws only.

7.Place the fence assembly onto the guide rail and against the edge of the miter slot, as shown in Figure 2. The hook at the rear of the fence should fit under the rear rail (see Figure 5).

8.The fence must align parallel to the miter slot along the entire length of the fence.

9.Lock the fence by pushing down the lock handle (G, Figure 2). Because the screws are only hand-tight, you can shift the fence slightly as needed until the fence parallels the miter slot.

10.When the fence has been properly aligned to the miter slot, tighten the four hex cap screws (F, Figure 2) with a 12mm wrench. Make sure the fence remains parallel to the miter slot as you tighten the screws. (NOTE: This alignment will again be checked once the guide rail has been tightened.)

11.Move the fence assembly to the other side of the blade so that the pointer (Figure 3) on the fence body points to “zero” on the scale. Lock the fence by pushing the handle down.

12.Move the guide rail with the locked fence until the fence is flush against the blade. (Do not force the fence into the blade so that the blade bends.) See Figure 3. Do not unlock the fence to perform this. Move the fence and guide rail together when establishing the zero point.

13.Tighten the five hex cap screws that hold the guide rail to the front rail, with a 10mm wrench. NOTE: After tightening the guide rail, double check that the fence is still parallel to the miter slot. Make additional adjustments if needed.
