Adjusting Your Rip Fence
You may find that after adjusting the face
plates the end of the cross-bracket has been
raised or lowered such that it is too close or
too far away from the main tube. If this is the
case, turn both plastic leveling screws the
same amount in order to ensure the position
indicator lenses are close, but not touching
the front tube or rulers (see Fig. 24).
there should be a gap
between the position
indicator lens and the
ruler on the main tube

The left and right face plates along each side of the fence tube are not replaceable. However, the fence head
can be moved from one end of the tube to the other if one of the face plates is damaged (e.g. damage from
contact with the spinning blade) so that the left and right face plates are reversed. To move the fence head, first
remove the fence endcap by removing the four button head screws on the endcap with a Phillips screwdriver
(see Fig. 25). Then remove the two M4x0.7x8 flat head Phillips bolts that mount the fence roller assembly and
slide the fence roller assembly out the open end of the fence tube. Next, peel off the four silver adhesive labels
on the top of the fence tube to uncover the four holes near the far end of the fence tube. Using a 4 mm hex key,
remove the four M6x1.0x12 button head socket bolts, along with their lock washers and washers, that mount
the fence head to the fence tube, as shown in Fig. 25. Slide the fence tube away from the fence head and turn
the tube around so that the SawStop sticker on the top of the fence faces the other direction and the right face
plate becomes the left face plate. Slide the fence tube onto the fence head and re-install the four mounting
bolts, along with their lock washers and washers, in the four holes near the fence head (see Fig. 26). Use a
4 mm hex key to fully tighten the four mounting bolts. Then slide the fence roller assembly into the open end
of the fence tube and mount it with the two flat head Phillips bolts. Re-install the endcap with the four button
head Phillips screws on the far end of the fence tube (see Fig. 26). Your fence may need to be re-adjusted after
completing this procedure (as described on pages 10-12).
