Woodstock W2005 Mounting The Front Rail Tube, Note Do not install the scale at this time

Mounting The Front Rail

1.Align the side of the front rail with two rectangular cutouts against the edge of the table.

2.Set the top edge of the front rail so it is flush with the table top and the cutouts are in line with the miter slots. If your saw table has a beveled front edge, then align the top of the rail with the bottom edge of the bevel. See Figure 3.

3.Attach the rail using the mounting hardware from the old rail or two 3⁄8"-16 x 1" or M10-1.5 X 25 hex head bolts and washers. Secure as shown in Figure 2.

Mounting The Front Rail Tube

1.Orient the machined flat edge of the tube so it faces the table edge.

2.Thread four 1⁄4-20 X 3⁄4" hex bolts and 1⁄4" washers through the rail and into the threaded holes in the bottom of the tube.

3.If your table has a beveled front edge, it may be necessary to install spacers or shims between the rail and the rectangular tube as shown in Figure 4. The spacers should equal approximately the height of the bevel (3⁄8" on most saws). Four to six washers installed with each of the four attachment screws should raise the height of the tube enough to assure clearance of the fence above the table surface.

4.Mount the fence on the rails and check the clearance between the bottom edge of the HDPE facing and the table top.

5.Add or remove shims from the tube to rail mounting until a clearance of at least 1⁄16" is achieved. Note—This clearance should never exceed 1⁄8", as this can allow material to get under the fence during certain types of sawing operations.

Note: Do not install the scale at this time.
