Adjust the Miter Bar for a Perfect Fit in Your Miter Channel

Place the V27 in your tool’s Miter Channel.

NOTE: If the miter channel does

not have a T-slot, remove and save the Retaining T-clip and screw located at
the end of the miter bar as shown in

Figure 1.

etup

Using the supplied 3/32” hex key, adjust each of the (3) visible miter bar
expansion disks for a zero-side play, sliding fit in your miter channel as shown
in

Figure 2. Turning the fastener clockwise EXPANDS the bar width. The disks

are designed to require a fair
amount of adjustment torque for
proper expansion.

Fig. 2

Remove the large clamping knob and disengage the indexing tooth from
the protractor. Pivot the protractor head to access and adjust the fourth
expansion point. See

Figure 3. Replace the large clamping knob.

Square Miter Faceplate to your Application

(table saw, router table, etc.)

Caution: Always unplug the power tool before squaring the faceplate

to your application. Loosen both the large and the small clamping knobs.
Set the indexing tooth to 0 degrees, and tighten the small clamping knob,
then tighten the large clamping knob. See

Figure 4.

Fig. 4

Using the supplied 1/8” hex key, loosen the (4) button head fasteners
that secure the faceplate to the protractor, and depending on your applica-
tion, square the faceplate to the blade, miter slot, sanding belt, etc.

NOTE:

When squaring to a saw blade (see

Figure 5), use a reliable square for this

important alignment. Securely retighten the (4) button head fasteners to
complete the alignment.

This important one-time adjust-
ment prepares your INCRA Miter
V27 for perfect angles at all other
indexing tooth positions. Verify
the accuracy of your alignment
with a test cut, and re-align if the
cut is not exactly 90 degrees.

Fig. 5

Your INCRA Miter V27 is now ready to easily and accurately produce
perfect angles. Just loosen both clamping knobs, and engage the indexing
tooth at the desired angle. Lock the indexing tooth clamping knob (the
small knob), then lock the large clamping knob.

peratiOn

Your INCRA Miter V27’s vertical support surface doubles as a Universal
Mounting Bracket that makes it easy to attach your own user-made auxiliary
fence if you ever need one. Just cut a straight piece of wood to the desired
length (18” to 24” is a good size),
and attach with user supplied
wood screws and washers through
the two slotted holes.
