Adjusting Your Rip Fence
The next step is to align the face plates to be
parallel to the miter slots. Begin by sliding the
fence along the main tube until the left face plate
is flush with the right edge of the right miter slot.
Lock the fence handle and check that the face
plate is flush with the miter slot edge along
its whole length (see Fig. 21). You can check this
either visually or by running your finger along the
face plate and miter slot edge. If there is any
misalignment, you can correct it by turning one
of the two parallelism adjustment screws in the
vertical edge of the fence cross-bracket (see
Fig. 16).

leveling screw
To adjust the angle of the face plates, place a
combination square on the table top and against
the left face plate (see Fig. 23). Use a 6 mm hex
key to adjust the leveling screws as necessary
until the face plate is parallel to the vertical edge
of the combination square.
The next step is to adjust the face plates to
be perpendicular to the table top. The angle
between the face plates and the table is set by
the two plastic leveling screws in the horizontal
portion of the cross-bracket (see Fig. 22). The
leveling screws raise and lower each end of the
horizontal portion of the fence cross-bracket
with respect to the main tube while the two face
plates remain parallel with each other. Adjusting
the leveling screws tilts the fence cross-bracket
as needed to make the face plates perpendicular
to the table.
