Adjusting Your T-Glide Fence System

The fence allows you to precisely set the width of your rip cuts (cuts that are length-wise along the grain of the

wood).The precise width of cut is shown by the indicator lenses on the front of the fence (see Fig. 23). The

lens on the left indicates the width of cut when the fence is on the left side of the blade. The lens on the right

indicates the width of cut when the fence is on the right side of the blade. Each indicator lens is positioned

above a ruler on the front tube. Each lens has a red cursor line that indicates the precise width of cut. To read

the width of cut, look down at the cursor line. The mark on the ruler that is directly below the cursor line is the

width of cut.

Although the fence is factory-adjusted to nominal settings, it is usually necessary to make final adjustments

once your rails and extension table have been installed on the saw.

If necessary, you can adjust the position

of the indicator lenses on the front of

the fence. To verify the position of each

indicator lens, clamp the fence to the

front tube and use a ruler to measure

the distance from the blade to the fence

plate and compare it to the measurement

shown on the proper indicator lens. If

adjustment is necessary, loosen the two

Phillips screws shown in Fig. 24 and

slide the indicator lens to the right or left

until the cursor is directly over the correct

measurement. Tighten the screws to

lock the position of the indicator lens.
