6. Attach remainder of Sled Base Right and Cut-
off Overhang
Using (4) #10-24 x 3/4” at head Phillips screws, attach the
remainder of the sled base right to the aluminum miter bar.
Use the mounting holes that permit the least amount of
overhang beyond the left side of the saw blade. Raise the
saw blade about 3/4” and make a cut to remove the por-
tion of the base right that extends beyond the left side of
the blade, Fig. 10. Turn off the saw, lower the blade and
return the sled base left to the table saw.
In use, only the sled base left slides to move your workpiece
through a cut. The sled base right will be positioned adja-
cent to the blade and locked in place by tightening the (2)
expansion mechanisms to provide zero clearance and work-
piece cutoff support, Fig. 11. Additional base right panels
can be purchased and cut as described above with the blade
tilted for zero clearance support during compound mitering.
Just mark each of the panel parts with the blade tilt angle for
future reference.
7. Attach Fence and Fence Extender to Sled
Base Left
Open hardware pack C-08 and using (2) 1/4-20 x 1/2” sock-
et head screws with washers and rectangular nuts, attach
the fence to the fence mounting bracket. Slide the fence
to a position that leaves safe clearance between the fence
and blade then tighten the (2) fasteners, Fig. 12. Loosely
install (1) 1/4-20 x 3/8” socket head fastener with washer
and rectangular nut to the left end of the fence and slide
extender bar into fence with the scale face up. (The higher
numbers on the scale should go in rst.) Loosely install (2)
1/4-20 x 3/8” socket head screws with washers and rect-
angular nuts to the 4” fence extender and slide onto the
end of the extender bar. Position the 4” fence extender
ush with the end of the extender bar and tighten all (3)
fasteners, Fig 13.
About your Fence Scales
All INCRA products use overlapping 16” long Lexan scales.
The overlap allows ne-tuning the scale from one end to the
other to agree with the high degree of accuracy provided by
the INCRA saw toothed positioning racks. As they are slid
into the scale slot on the fence, the ends are overlapped
and aligned using the optical window located at the end of
the second scale. The friction t will keep the scales in
place. If you wish, you can use a small piece of double faced
tape at the overlap to ensure that the scales move together
when changing your zeroed setups for mitering.
