RIP FENCE ADJUSTMENT

fine adjustments for accurate cuts. The saw is built to allow
the operator to accurately adjust the rip fence without prob-
lems in a matter of seconds.
LEVELING THE FENCE TO THE TABLE

• Observe the space between the fence bottom and the
table. The space should be equal along the entire length
of the fence.
• If the space is not equal, the rails need to be adjusted so
that rails are at the same vertical position with respect to
the table. See Rail Assembly, pages 10-11.
