SawStop T-Glide Fence System - Manual (Page 11)

It is usually possible to adjust the position of the face plates by lightly tapping the top or bottom edge of the face
plates with a plastic or wooden mallet. However, if the face plates do not move when tapped, you can loosen
the mounting screws as described below to adjust the face plates.
If the right face plate needs to be adjusted, you
must first remove the left face plate. Begin by
laying the fence on the table with the left face
plate facing down. You can access the screws
for the left face plate through the slots on the
bottom of the fence. Insert a 5 mm ball end
hex driver or hex key through the slot at the
end of the fence and into the screw head. See
Fig. 15. Loosen the screw but do not unthread
it completely. Continue this process with each
slot/screw pair. It may be helpful to shine a
flashlight down the end of the tube to illuminate
the screw heads. Once all the screws are
loosened push the face downward to align the
screw heads with the large portion of the key-
hole slots, and then pull the face plate off the
fence.
Once the left face plate has been removed, you can access the screws for the right face plate through the key-
hole slots for the left face plate. See Fig. 16. Loosen each screw in the right face plate just enough to allow
the face plate to slide against the fence. Install the fence on the main tube and position the right face plate as
desired, making sure to leave at least a small gap between the bottom of the face plate and the table so the
face plate does not drag on the table.
Next, lift the fence off the tube and place it on the
table with the right face plate facing down. Make
sure not to move the face plate from the position
you set it. If necessary you can clamp the face
plate to the fence to keep the face plate from
moving. Tighten each screw to lock the right face
plate in position. Make sure not to over-tighten
these screws as it that may cause a slight
concavity in the surface of the face plate near
the screw.
Replace the left face plate onto the fence and
install the fence on the main tube. Adjust the
position of the left face plate as desired. Lift the
fence off the tube and set it on the table with the
left face plate down, making sure the position of
the face plate doesn’t move. Tighten the screws to
lock the left face plate onto the fence. Your fence
is now fully adjusted and ready to use.
