Please read this owner’s manual and
keep it at hand for reference.
Note: The INCRA TS-LS system consists of
three packages. One of the packages contains
the rails and another, the base mount unit.
These two assemblies are covered fully by this
owner’s manual. The third package contains
the INCRA LS Positioner. Read all of this
TS-LS owner’s manual and the Safety, Getting
Acquainted and Operations sections of the
LS Positioner manual. If you have also pur-
chased one of the router table extension wings,
complete all assembly instructions in
this manual BEFORE attaching the
router table.
In just about an hour or so, you
are going to be operating one
of the most exciting new tools in
today’s woodshops. Your table
saw will undergo a transforma-
tion, and what was once an
average saw will emerge a preci-
sion woodworking machine, one you’ll be proud
of for years to come. So take a few minutes to
read over the safety information and mounting
instructions, then grab a Phillips screwdriver
and a set of wrenches and let’s get started .
