CHECKING RIP FENCE AND
BLADE ALIGNMENT
See Figures 36, 37, and 38.
The ripfence is self-aligning but should be checked
before first use.
WARNING: Failure to align the rip fence to the
blade can cause jams and kickback, resulting in
serious personal injury.
Slide the rip fence to the miter gage groove, which
is parallel to blade. Do not lock the rip fence.
Place a framing square against the blade, with the
long end under the rip fence at the front. See
Figure 36. Note the distance.
Move the square to the back and measure the
length from other end of the fence. See Figure 37.
If the distances are different, loosen the four
screws around the ripfence handle with a 6 mm
hex key. Alternate the order (remove the screw
opposite, not next to the first one). See Figure 38.
Hold the fence handle against the front rail and
align the ripfence with the blade.
Retighten the screws in alternating order and
check the alignment.
Repeat until the ripfence is aligned.
