The rip fence slides onto the rear fence rail so that the
hook is under the rear rail and rides on the front guide
tube. The fence locks in place by applying pressure in
a downward motion on the rip fence handle. Rip fence
alignment should be checked prior to using your saw.
To check alignment of the rip fence, see alignment
instructions on page 29.
Insert miter gauge into each miter slot to make sure it
slides freely. See Adjusting the Miter Stops section on
page 28 for adjustment of miter gauge accuracy.
The Delta #36-725 contractor table saw comes with

areas are located on the right side panel of the machine

On-board storage for the fence and the push stick is
located on the left side of the saw.
