e. If the front and rear measurements, shown
in Figure 11b are not identical, identify the
side with the gap. Use the 5mm Allen key
supplied with your saw to loosen the four
alignment bolts located under the front and
rear of the table (Fig. 11b). At the same time,
use a 4mm Allen key (not supplied) to adjust
the eccentric screw located behind the saw
blade on the table (Fig. 11c).
f. Carefully move the undercarriage containing
the saw blade until the blade is parallel to the
miter slot, and securely tighten the two bolts.
If the parallelism is still off, loosen all four
bolts and repeat.
ALIGNING RIP FENCE (FIG. 12a-12b)
WARNING
battery pack from the tool when making
adjustments.
The fence is properly aligned to the blade in all
three positions at the factory and should not
require adjustment. This section is intended
only for maintenance purposes or when the
fence becomes unaligned due to impact. The
rip fence must be parallel with the sawblade in
order to prevent KICKBACK when ripping.
Your table saw is equipped with a multiple
position rack and pinion rip fence. Once the
adjustments below have been made, the rip
fence will self-align when the fence is locked
into one of the three positions. All three rip
fence positions need to be aligned parallel to
the blade. When moving the rip fence, make
sure to unlock and lock the fence with the rail
locking lever and use the rail adjustment knob
to adjust the fence position.
To lock the rail locking lever, push it down and
toward the rear of the saw.
To unlock the rail locking lever, pull it toward the
front of the saw and up.
The tension of the fence clamping

system can be adjusted. See
"Rail Lock Adjustment" in maintenance chapter.
The blade must be parallel with

the miter gauge slots and be
perpendicular to table before proceeding with
rip fence alignment.

as high as it will go.
Align the blade to the miter gauge slots.
•
Adjust the right side, position 1 (close to
blade). See Fig. 12b.
NOTE: The right side position 1 for the fence
permits cuts of 0 to 24.5 inches on the right
side of the blade. The top scale shows this
dimension. In this location, the flip-over fence
should be on the left of the main fence when in
the auxiliary fence position (closest to the blade).
a. Use the included 5 mm Allen key to loosen
the right index bolts 1 on the front and back
rails approximately 1/2 to 1 turn, so that the
bolts can slide freely. Slide the index bolts 1
to the right by approximately 1/8 inch (3 mm).
b. Place the fence over the index bolts 1, but
do not secure the rip fence lock levers on the
front or back rail.
