must always be PARALLEL to the sawblade and

The folded paperwill be used as a “spacing gauge".
17. Place Rip Fence on table. CAREFULLY move it
against blade so that it is parallel to the blade, and
just TOUCHES tips of sawteeth. Tighten Rip Fence
Lock Lever.
18. Insert folded paper between Spreader and Fence.
19. Using 7/16 wrench loosen the 1/4-20 hex head
screws so the Spreader can slide sideways.
20. Hold Spreader flat against Fence. Tighten screws
