4.4 Fence alignment 1
Adjustment can be made to the fence
in relation to being square to the blade.
This is done by slackening the four star
knobs on the fence rail and adjusting the
rails position until the fence is square to
the blade.
Please note this adjustment must be
made with the fence in a clamped
position Fig.4.9.
4.5 Fence alignment 2
Check that the fence is
90º to the table
using a suitable square, there is no need
for adjustment as this area is factory
set Fig.4.10A. However if settings have
slipped during transit slight adjustment
may be needed. The best way to adjust
this is by adding extra washers or shims
between the star knobs and the
fence rail
where required Fig.4.10B.
Tip
When an accurate cut is crucial it is
good practi
ce to check all settings
before machining the workpiece and
make a test cut with some scrap
material.
