SETTING UP AT THE TABLE SAW

1. Install stack Dado or Box Joint Blade of
Choice

After completing the preliminary setup described on
page 2, unplug your table saw and install your preferred
box joint blade. The INCRA IBOX works with
standard stack dado sets as well as 2-piece reversible
blade box joint sets like those produced by Forrest,
Ridge Carbide and Freud. You can cut delicate 1/8”
box joints using standard 1/8” kerf table saw blades,
but you’ll want to choose a blade that features a flat
ground raker tooth or a special box joint grind like
those from Forrest and Ridge Carbide,

Fig 2.

If you are setting up one of the reversible blade sets,
begin with the widest cut profile for the setup that
follows. You can change back to a narrow cut blade
configuration later after the setup is complete. If you
are setting up with a standard stack dado set, any cut
width can be used during setup.

2. Adjust GlideLOCK™ Miter Bar Assembly

Drop the GlideLOCK™ Miter Bar Assembly into
your table saw’s miter slot. Use the left-hand slot for
left tilting saws or the right-hand slot for right tilting
saws. Now adjust the GlideLOCK™ expansion discs
at each end of the bar to adjust the fit for a smooth
glide in your table saw’s miter slot. Turn the fasteners
clockwise to make the glide tighter or counter-
clockwise for a looser glide,

plate is factory squared but can be adjusted as required
by loosening the (2) button head fasteners.
