D. OPTIONAL EXT. RAILS | E. MOUNTING THE FENCE |
An extended rail set is available for the Shop Fox® Fence increasing the rip capacity to the right of the blade to 49''. They are mounted in the same man- ner as the standard rails.
An extension table (Figure 5.) must be mounted between the fence extension rails to properly sup- port the rails as well as the workpiece. The exten- sion table must fit in the gap between the rails per- fectly or the rails will be bowed. Remove the right side table saw wing and bolt the extension table in place using the existing holes for the wing. Extra holes will need to be drilled in the rails to secure the extension table at the right end.
Figure 5. Extension table.
With the lock handle in the ''UP'' (unlocked) posi- tion, attach the fence to the rails by skewing the fence so the groove in the rear spring loaded roller engages the back rail first. Figure 7. Then, hold- ing the rear of the fence stationary, roll the first front roller onto the front rail. Align the rear jaws so the back rail will pass between them. Figure 8. You may need to gently separate the jaws with a screwdriver to allow them to clear the rail. Feed the front jaws onto the front rail and slide the fence the rest of the way on, making sure the sec- ond front roller engages securely.
