Step 1
Remove any existing saw fence and all of it’s mounting
hardware.
Step 2
Throughly clean the table saw top to include the underside of the
front and back edges.
If the holes in your table saw table do not line up with the hole in
the Guide Rail Drilling Guide (Part #4) you will have to do the
following step.
Step 3
Using the Guide Rail Drilling Jig (Part # 4) mark the locations to
be drilled for the Rail Mounting Bolts (Part #11) (the fence rail
should have a mounting bolt approximately every 12” from the
center out and approximately 2” from the ends) as follows:
( A) From the front center on the in feed side of the saw table
top, place the drilling guide with the hole side against the edge of
the top. Mark the 1/4” hole location with a pencil or scribe as
shown in (Figure#1) at every 12” left and right from the center of
the saw top then 2” in from each end. Inspect the back side of the
location you just marked to insure there is no casting rib or
obstruction which would prevent the placement of the bolt,
washer and nut through the edge of the top for mounting the
Fence Rails.
(B) Using a hand power drill and a 1/4” drill bit, drill through
the table top edge at the marked location.
(C) Repeat the above procedure for the outfeed side of your table
saw top.
Note: Check the back side of each drilled hole for burrs.
Remove any burs with a file to prevent false locking of
washer and nut.
Step 4
Install the 1/4” x 20 x 1” bolts, flat washer and 1/4” locking nut
through the holes drilled in the in-feed and out-feed table edges
with bolt head to the out side edge. Leave the bolt loose with
about 1/4” of threads showing to the out side of the table see
(Figure 2). If your edge of your table is thicker than 1/4” you
may need to use longer mounting bolts.
Note: The bolts must be left loose to allow for the Fence rails
to slide on.
