Warranty SawStop warrants to the original retail purchaser of a new T-Glide Fence System - Professional Series II from an authorized SawStop distributor that the fence system will be free from defects in material and workmanship for ONE YEAR from the date of purchase.
Unpacking Your T-Glide Fence System While unpacking your saw, verify that you have all the components shown below for your specific fence system. The T-Glide Fence System – Professional Series II is available in either a 52” system or a 36” system. Although the components pictured below are from the 52” system, the components from the 36” system are similar.
Installing Your T-Glide Fence System Note: Your saw must be fully assembled before installing the fence system. Before you begin installing the fence system, locate the front rail, the rear rail, and the T-Glide Rails Hardware Pack (shown on the right). All of the hardware needed to install the rails is located on the T-Glide Rails Hardware Pack and is shipped in the T-Glide fence box.
S a w S to p Installing Your T-Glide Fence System Installing your T-Glide Fence System on your SawStop® Professional Cabinet Saw TM 1. Begin mounting the front rail (the longer of the two rails) to the front edge of your saw by centering the notches in the rail with the two miter slots in the table, aligning the two holes in the rail between the notches with the two corresponding holes in the front edge of the table, and threading an M8 x 16 countersunk socket head bolt into each hole (see Fig. 1).
Installing Your T-Glide Fence System Professional Cabinet Saw 2. Take two more M8 x 16 countersunk socket head bolts and thread one into the hole to the right of the notches and the other into the hole to the left of the notches (see Fig. 2). Tighten the bolts with a 5 mm hex key. 1 Fig.
Installing Your T-Glide Fence System Professional Cabinet Saw 3. Take two M8 x 25 countersunk socket head bolts and insert one bolt through the corresponding hole in the end of each extension wing (see Fig. 3a). Place an M8 washer, an M8 lock washer, and an M8 hex nut on the threaded end of each of the bolts (see Fig. 3b). Hand tighten the nuts; do not fully tighten them. 2 Fig. 3a 2 front rail 3 4 5 Fig.
Installing Your T-Glide Fence System Professional Cabinet Saw 4. Begin mounting the rear rail (the shorter of the two rails) to the rear edge of your saw by centering the notches in the rail with the two miter slots in the table and aligning the left-most hole between the notches with the corresponding hole in the rear edge of the table. There are three holes in the rail between the notches, one solitary hole and two holes paired together, and the left-most hole is the solitary hole.

Installing Your T-Glide Fence System Contractor Saw 3. The holes in the front edge of the table and extension wings are slightly larger than the bolts they receive to allow you to level the front rail and extension wings to the table top. Align the top of the front rail with the lower edge of the bevel on the front edge of the table top (see Fig. 3). Use a 5 mm hex key and a 13 mm wrench to fully tighten the nuts on the back of the four bolts that extend through the table top.
Installing Your T-Glide Fence System Contractor Saw 5. Finish mounting the rear rail to your saw by inserting an M8 x 25 countersunk socket head bolt through the open hole at the end of each extension wing (see Fig. 5a), and placing an M8 washer, an M8 lock washer, and an M8 hex nut on the threaded end of each bolt (see Fig. 5b).

Installing Your T-Glide Fence System 7. Once the rails are in place you can mount the extension table to the rails. The hardware needed to mount the extension table to the rails is in the T-Glide Table Hardware Pack shown below. T-Glide Table Hardware Pack Professional Series The instructions for installing the extension table and the fence (steps 7-22) are the same for both the Professional Cabinet Saw and the Contractor Saw.
Installing Your T-Glide Fence System 8. Locate the two leg support brackets. Remove the two M8 x 20 countersunk socket head bolts from the T-Glide Table Hardware Pack along with two M8 washers, two M8 lock washers and two M8 hex nuts. Mount one leg support bracket to the underside of each of the rails as shown in Fig. 8a. Hand tighten the nuts; do not fully tighten them. 16 Once mounted, the brackets should create a shelf as shown in the close-up view of Fig. 8b below.
Installing Your T-Glide Fence System 10. The extension table mounts to the rails with bolts that pass through holes in the rails and extension table (see Fig. 10). If you have an extension table for a 36” fence system, take two M8 x 35 countersunk socket head bolts and insert one through the hole in the front rail closest to the saw and the other through the hole in the rear rail closest to the saw.
Installing Your T-Glide Fence System 13. Attach each support leg to the corresponding leg support bracket with an M10 x 40 hex head bolt, two M10 washers, and an M10 lock nut, as shown in Fig. 13, and fully tighten the bolts using two 17 mm wrenches. Note that the leg support brackets align with different holes in the front and rear legs because the brackets are at different elevations. front rail rear rail 25 23 24 24 25 24 24 23 Fig. 13 14.
Installing Your T-Glide Fence System 15. Place the straight-edge lengthwise across the middle of the table (see Fig. 15a) and level the middle of the extension table by turning the screw in the adjustment bracket with a 5 mm hex key (see Fig. 15b). straight-edge Fig. 15a NOTE: The adjustment bracket is designed for cast iron wings only. If you have a Contractor Saw with stamped wings, you may skip this step and go on to step 16. adjustment screw Fig. 15b 16.
Installing Your T-Glide Fence System 17. Locate the front tube and the T-Glide Rails Hardware Pack. If you have a 36” fence system, remove seven M8 x 16 hex head bolts and seven M8 lock washers from the T-Glide Rails Hardware Pack. If you have a 52” fence system, remove nine M8 x 16 hex head bolts and nine M8 lock washers from the T-Glide Rails Hardware Pack. Position the tube on the front rail with the rulers facing up and the 12-inch ruler on the left.
Installing Your T-Glide Fence System 19. The holes in the bottom of the front rail are oversized to allow you to adjust the position of the tube on the rail. To set the tube in the correct position, first pull the front tube away from the table as far as possible. Next, place your fence down on the tube near the left end (see Fig. 19). front tube Fig. 19 20. Press down on the fence handle to clamp the fence to the front tube.
Installing Your T-Glide Fence System 21. Once the fence is tightly clamped to the front tube, move the left end of the tube back toward the saw until there is only a small gap (approximately 1/16 inch) between the front rail and the rear of the fence (see Fig. 21). Tighten the left-most M8 x 16 hex head bolt that holds the tube to the front rail using a 13 mm wrench. gap Fig. 21 22.
Adjusting Your T-Glide Fence System Although the fence is factory-adjusted to nominal settings, it is usually necessary to make final adjustments once your rails and extension table have been installed on the saw. The fence allows you to precisely set the width of your rip cuts (cuts that are length-wise along the grain of the wood).The precise width of cut is shown by the indicator lenses on the front of the fence (see Fig. 23).
Adjusting Your T-Glide Fence System The next step is to align the face plates to be parallel to the miter slots. Begin by sliding the fence along the front tube until the left face plate is flush with the right edge of the right miter slot. Lock the fence handle and check that the face plate is flush with the miter slot edge along its whole length (see Fig. 25). You can check this either visually or by running your finger along the face plate and miter slot edge.
Adjusting Your T-Glide Fence System You may find that after adjusting the face plates the end of the cross-bracket has been raised or lowered such that it is too close or too far away from the main tube. If this is the case, turn both plastic leveling screws the same amount in order to ensure the position indicator lenses are close, but not touching the front tube or rulers. There should be a gap between the position indicator lens and the ruler on the main tube. Fig.
Adjusting Your T-Glide Fence System Install the fence on the front tube and position the face plate as desired, making sure to leave at least a small gap between the bottom of the face plate and the table so the face plate does not drag on the table. It may be necessary to loosen and raise the other face plate as well if it is too low and interferes with the adjustment. Next, carefully lift the fence off the front tube and place it on the table with the newly adjusted face plate facing down.
