through the table top grooves.
2. Loosen the lock knob handle (2) and turn the gauge
body (3) to set the pointer (4) at 90 degrees on the scale,
3. Make a 90° cut in a scrap piece d wood. Check the cut
to see if it is 90°. If not, adjust the miter gauge body and
try again until the cut is at 90 °. Mark that position on the
scale as 90 degrees.

The fence should be parallel with the miter gauge
groove.
4. If adjustment is needed to make the fence parallel to the
groove, do the following:
a. Loosen the two screws (3) and lift up on the
handle (2).
b. Hold the fence bracket (4) firmly against the front
rail (6). Move the end of the fence until it is
parallel with the miter gauge groove.
c. Tighten both screws (3) and push the handle (2) to
lock.
5. If the fence is loose when the handle is in the locked
(downward) position, move the handle (2) upward and
turn the adjusting the two hex nuts (5) until getting

The rip fence indicator (6} points to the measurement
scale (7). The scale shows the distance from the side of
the fence to the nearest side of the blade.
Measure the actual distance with a rule. If there is a
difference between the measurement and the indicator,
adjust the indicator (6).
Loosen the screw (8) and slide the indicator to the
correct measurement on the scale. Tighten the screw
and remeasure with the ruler to check accuracy.
