ADJUSTMENTS
TO CHECK THE TIGHTNESS OF THE RIP
FENCE LOCKING LEVER
See Figure 56.
The locking lever on the rip fence should hold the rip fence
securely against the front and back rails. The lever should
not be difficult to push down and lock. To assure proper
fence lock adjustment:
Lock the rip fence in place.
Try moving the fence from side-to-side. If the fence moves,
tighten the lock nut 1/4 turn.
With the rip fence in the locked position, recheck rip fence
parallelism with the blade and adjust if necessary.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken, or
destroy plastic which may result in serious personal injury.
Periodically check all clamps, nuts, bolts, and screws for
tightness and condition. Make sure the throat plate is in
good condition and in position.
Check the blade guard assembly.
To maintain the table surfaces, fence, and rails,
periodically apply paste wax to them and buff to provide
smooth functioning.
Protect the blade by cleaning out sawdust from
underneath the table and in the blade teeth. Use a resin
solvent on the blade teeth.
Clean plastic parts only with a soft damp cloth. DO
NOT use any aerosol or petroleum solvents.
