8. Place a square on the table and against the face of
the fence, as shown in Figure 105, to check if the
fence is square to the table.
— If the fence is square to the table, proceed to
Parallelism & Clamping Pressure below.
— If the fence is not square to the table, continue
with Step 8.
9. Loosen the top lock nuts and adjust the top set
screws (see Figure 105) to make the fence face 90°
to the table, then re-tighten the lock nuts.
Parallelism & Clamping Pressure
Set screws on the rear side of the fence flange position
the fence parallel to the blade and adjust the clamping
pressure to hold your fence securely. Before starting this
procedure, make sure the blade is parallel with the miter
slot.
To adjust the fence parallelism and clamping pressure,
do these steps:
1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!
2. Lock the fence in place, then tap the front side with
your hand and check to see if it moved sideways
over the table.
— If the fence did not move, proceed to Step 6.
— If the fence moved, remove it from the table and
continue with Step 3.
3. Turn each rear set screw in
1
⁄
6
th
of a turn (see Figure
103 on the previous page).
4. Re-install the fence and repeat Step 3.
