3.
Set blade to exactly 90-degrees and raise blade
to expose sufficient surface area.
4.
Loosen fence lock knob and fence locking lever
(shown in Figure 10).
Figure 8: setting fence-to-blade
5.
Slide fence assembly so that fence just contacts
blade. Do not deflect blade by pushing into it –
only light contact is desired. See Figure 8.
6.
Verify that fence is parallel to blade; that is,
fence has equal contact with the edges of the
blade teeth at front, center and back of blade.
7.
If fence is not flush, loosen front screw of guide
bar (see B, Figure 3), and gently tap front or
back of fence to achieve parallelism with blade.
8.
Tighten front screw (B, Figure 3) to secure
setting.
9.
Remove jig from saw and turn it over. Tighten
center screw (A, Figure 3).
9.4.1 Miter slot fit
10. Reinstall jig on table saw.
11. Check miter slot fit. Guide bar should fit snug
within miter slot without binding. Wiggle front
and back of jig to check for play.
12. If play exists, turn one or both set screws
(Figure 9) until fit is snug. Access rear set screw
through top of base. To access front set screw,
move fence all the way back.
Note: Drive screw in for tighter fit; loosen screw
for looser fit.
If adjustments are made for miter slot fit, confirm
that fence parallelism to blade has not shifted.

9.4.2 Setting zero reference
13. Loosen fence lock knob and fence locking lever
(Figure 10). Return fence to position of light
contact with blade.
14. Tighten fence lock knob. Make sure fence does
not shift while tightening knob.
Figure 10: setting stop #1
15. Loosen locking levers of both stops, and slide
stops until firmly pressed against fence handle,
as shown in Figure 10.
Note: Locking levers are position-adjustable;
pull lever to vertical and rotate it to different
position.
16. Tighten stop #1 locking lever, as shown in
Figure 10. Make sure lever is securely tight.
