With the fence in its normal position (next to the
front table), loosen the yoke clamp handle, pull on

e.
Position carriage until the edge of the blade, when
spun by hand, just touches the front face of the
fence. The rip-scale indicator (on the left hand side
of radial arm) should now read "'0" inches on upper
portion of the blade "In-Rip" scale. If not, loosen
screws and shift the indicator until it is aligned with
the "O" mark, then tighten the screws.
NOTE: With the saw blade and fence in the position
shown, the upper portion of the blade "In-Rip"
scale is used. If the fence is re-located at the
extreme rear position, the saw must be repositioned
for blade "Out-Rip" and the lower portion of the
blade "Out-Rip" scale would be used.
Loosen the yoke clamp handle, pull on the swivel
latch pin knob and return the blade to the 90 °
position.
