Step 3.
Once adjusted, tighten the setscrew and recheck
the fence alignment. Be aware that behind each
setscrew there is a plastic plug (#31) that protects
the threaded axle from damage and creates a soft
stop for the setscrews. Do not over-tighten the set-
screw after adjustments have been made.
Step 4.
It may be necessary to adjust the axle slightly to
compensate for the slight axle shift induced by
tightening the setscrew. Remember, the fence
should be
1
⁄
64
" away from the miter slot measured
at the back end of the fence.
Step 5.
If for some reason you are having problems
adjusting the fence, please refer to the Section V,
Troubleshooting on page 20.

F. 90˚ TO TABLETOP
The fence must also be adjusted so the face of the
fence is square or 90° to the table surface. Use a
good quality square to check. To square the fence
to the table, proceed as follows:
Step 1.
Unlock the fence and loosen the setscrew (#32) on
the left side. Figure 20.
Step 2.
The left roller axle is threaded into the fence body.
As the roller axle is rotated, the roller will move
up and down a small amount. Since the rollers are
firmly held against the front rail, this has the effect
of changing the angle of the fence with respect to
the table top. Rotate the left roller axle (#34) while
monitoring the gap between the square and the
fence. Figure 21.
NOTE: The nut under the left roller could come
loose during adjustment. If this occurs, lock the
axle by tightening the setscrew and then tighten
the nut. Use a liquid thread locker on the nut if the
problem persists.
