Attach Shield to Track:
Attach the Shield to the 4555A Ultra Track using two
1 ” bolts (HB030), 1/2” spacers (BUSH5050) and knobs
(5521). Slide the bolt heads in the top T-slot of the track,
insert the Shield (4553G) on the bolts, followed by the 1/2
”
spacers and the knobs. If the bottom the Shield hits your
miter gauge, place the 1/2
” spacers between the top of the
track and the underside of the Shield. Center the Shield over
of the exit path of the blade to help shield your fingers. Slide
the Shield out of the way when making track adjustments.
Attach Stop:
Insert a 1-1/2 ” bolt thru the Stop (4553C - start bolt from ribbed side), insert a 5/8”
spacer (BUSH004) and a knob (5440) on the end of the bolt. Slide the head
of the bolt in the top or middle T-slot of the 4555A Ultra Track and
tighten. The Stop is used for fine tuning the joint size
and can be used on the right or left side of
the Adapter, depending on if
you’re tightening or
loosening
the joint.

the four 1/2 ” flat head screws (MF005) thru

of the track. In use, adjust the position
of the Bases so the center gap is just
slightly wider then the cutter width.
