12. USE A PUSH STICK WHEN CUTTING
NARROW PIECES.
13. DO NOT REACH BEHIND TABLE SAW
TO GRAB CUTOFF PIECE. If wood binds
against saw blade it will kick back faster
than you can let go.
14. DO NOT LET THE END OF THE
WORKPIECE CONTACT THE FENCE WHILE
CROSSCUTTING WOOD WITH THE MITER
GAUGE. There is a potential for kick-back.
Move the fence away.
15. DISCONNECT TABLE SAW FROM POWER
before servicing and when changing
accessories, such as blades, bits, and
cutters.
16. AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Make sure
the switch is in the “OFF” position before
plugging in the cord.
17. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Do not operate
the table saw until you are certain it is in
perfect running condition.
18. NEVER LEAVE THE TABLE SAW RUNNING
UNATTENDED - TURN POWER OFF. Do not
leave the saw until it comes to a full stop.
19. DO NOT OPERATE EQUIPMENT IF USING
DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR MEDICATION.
20. DO NOT OPERATE EQUIPMENT if you are
mentally or physically fatigued.
21. IF THERE IS SOMETHING YOU DO NOT
UNDERSTAND, DO NOT OPERATE
MACHINE! Ask for help first.
22. BAD HABITS ARE DANGEROUS. Review all
safety procedures often.
1. KNOW YOUR TABLE SAW. Read the
owner’s manual carefully. Learn the tool’s

Figure 2. Mounting the front and back rails.
3. Position the back rail so its top edge
is flush with the table top and the
rectangular cut-outs are in line with the
miter slots. See Figure 1.
UNPLUG the saw power cord, and TURN
OFF the power switch before you begin
fence installation procedures. Accidental
saw startup while installing or adjusting the
fence will result in serious personal injury.
Rail Installation
On most saws, the mounting holes for the rails
will match the existing rail mounting holes.
On the saws where the mounting holes do
not line up, see Correcting Mounting Hole
Misalignment on Page 14 for instructions on
drilling new holes.
Metric and standard hex bolts have been
included to fit most common rail installations.
Mounting the Back Rail
1. Remove the mounting hardware for the
blade guard which extends over the back
edge of the table. (Be sure to reinstall the
guard after completion.)
2. Locate the back fence rail (the rail with
the two rectangular cut-outs on one edge
and one cutout on the other edge) and set
it against the rear edge of the table saw.
Figure 1. Attaching the back rail.
4. Attach the rail using the mounting
hardware from the old rail or two 3⁄8"-16
x 1" or M10-1.5 X 25 hex head bolts and
washers. Secure as shown in Figure 2.

Shop Fox® Classic Fence -7-
Mounting The Front Rail
1. Align the side of the front rail with two
rectangular cutouts against the edge of the
table.
2. Set the top edge of the front rail so it is
flush with the table top and the cutouts
are in line with the miter slots. If your saw
table has a beveled front edge, then align
the top of the rail with the bottom edge of
the bevel. See Figure 3.
Figure 3. Attaching the front rail bracket.
Bottom Edge
of Bevel
3. Attach the rail using the mounting
hardware from the old rail or two 3⁄8"-16
x 1" or M10-1.5 X 25 hex head bolts and
washers. Secure as shown in Figure 2.
Figure 4. Shimming the front tube.
Mounting The Front Rail Tube
1. Orient the machined flat edge of the tube
so it faces the table edge.
2. Thread four 1⁄4-20 X 3⁄4" hex bolts and
1⁄4" washers through the rail and into the
threaded holes in the bottom of the tube.
3. If your table has a beveled front edge,
it may be necessary to install spacers or
shims between the rail and the rectangular
tube as shown in Figure 4. The spacers
should equal approximately the height of
the bevel (3⁄8" on most saws). Four to six
washers installed with each of the four
attachment screws should raise the height
of the tube enough to assure clearance of
the fence above the table surface.
4. Mount the fence on the rails and check the
clearance between the bottom edge of the
HDPE facing and the table top.
5. Add or remove shims from the tube to
rail mounting until a clearance of at least
1⁄16" is achieved. Note—This clearance
should never exceed 1⁄8", as this can allow
material to get under the fence during
certain types of sawing operations.
Note: Do not install the scale at this time.

1. Raise the lock handle up to release the
fence locking tab and place the fence down
on the rails.
2. Make sure the angle bracket of the fence
assembly fits easily into the slot created by
the front rail bracket and rectangular tube.
• If any binding is experienced, loosen the
rail mounting bolts and adjust the rails.
3. Install the fence, and check to see that
it slides smoothly along the rails without
binding or catching on the table surface.
• If any binding is experienced, loosen the
rail mounting bolts and adjust the rails.
4. Make sure you keep the rail support pad free
of debris and dirt. This pad is pre-positioned
so that it slides along the top of the rail or
the top of the table. The rear rail support
pad is located on the underside of the fence.
See Figure 5.
7-Foot Rails
The W2006/2007 extended 7' rail set for the
SHOP FOX® Classic Fence increases the rip
capacity to the right of the blade to 54''.
These are mounted in the same manner as the
standard rails. The long rail set also includes
legs which provide added stability for the table
saw/fence assembly when large or heavy work
is positioned on the table.
Mounting the extension legs
1. Attach rails according to the rail installation
instructions on page 6 & 7.
2. Thread a 1⁄2" hex nut onto each foot and
thread a foot into the bottom of each leg.
3. Loosely bolt a brace to each of the legs
with a 3⁄8-16 x 3⁄4" hex bolt and three 3⁄8"
washers. Place two of the washers between
the leg and the brace.
4. Position the legs as shown in Figure 6 and
insert two 1⁄4-20 x 1⁄2" hex bolts with washers
through each rail and loosely thread them
into the legs.
5. Rotate the braces up and thread a 3⁄8-16 x
5⁄8" hex bolt with a washer through each rail
and into the braces.
6. Place a level on the rails and adjust the feet
until the rails are level, then tighten the hex
nuts on the feet against the bottom of the
legs.
7. Tighten all of the bolts.

Shop Fox® Classic Fence -9-
Figure 6. Extension table.

Extension Table
An extension table should be mounted between
the fence extension rails to provide workpiece
support. The extension table width should be
sized to fit in the gap between the rails. The
length of the table extension can be set so the
table replaces the existing right wing of the saw
(if your saw is so equipped) or can be used in
conjunction with the existing wing.
Constructing the extension table
1. Construct the extension table as shown
in Figure 6 using a frame with a separate
top or a solid table can be made from
countertop materials with a 3⁄4" to 1" thick
particle board surfaced with a Melamine® or
Formica® type of material.
Figure 7. Extension rails and table assembly.
2. When installing the extension table, be sure
it is flush with the table saw top by placing
a long straightedge across both tables and
adjusting the extension until it is even along
the length of the straightedge. Figure 7
shows a typical installation.

-10- Shop Fox® Classic Fence
DO NOT operate the saw without a blade guard
installed. Operating without a guard creates a
risk of injury from kickback or flying debris. If
you encounter any difficulty with reinstalling
the blade guard with the new fence system,
contact Woodstock’s Technical Support.
Figure 8. Rail and guard bracket installation.
Blade Guard
The SHOP FOX ® Classic Fence is intended
to work with all table saw blade guards.
After installing the rear rail you will be
able to reinstall the guard assembly without
interference with the rail. A typical installation
is shown below in Figure 8.
If you have any questions or concerns about the
blade guard on your saw working in conjunction
with the new fence, please see your dealer or
contact Woodstock’s Technical Support.
Magnetic Switch
At the left hand edge of the front rail there are
pre-drilled holes which can be used to mount
the table saw ON/OFF switch to the rail. This
relocation of the magnetic switch makes it easy
to turn the saw on and off without reaching
underneath the table. Consult the instruction
manual for your saw table to determine
whether it is possible to locate your switch on
the rail. Mount the switch to the rail using the
1⁄4-20 X 3⁄4" flat head screws, 1⁄4-20 hex nuts,
and 1⁄4" flat washers.
Always make certain the saw is disconnected
from the power supply before opening the
switch box.

Figure 10. Lead adjustment.
1⁄64"
Figure 9. Setscrews on bracket.
Your SHOP FOX® Classic Fence requires little
adjustment since most of the features are built-
in to the fence at the factory. The primary
adjustment is to adjust the fence so it is
parallel to the saw blade.
Setscrews
Shown exaggerated for
illustration purposes
Fence Parallelism
If your table saw has been properly adjusted,
the saw blade should be parallel to the miter
slot. Refer to your table saw manual for the
proper procedure to check and adjust the saw
blade to the miter slot correctly.
1. Locate the two setscrews on the lower edge
of the fence bracket. See Figure 9.
ADJUSTMENTS
UNPLUG the saw power cord, and TURN
OFF the power switch before you begin
fence adjustment procedures. Accidental
saw startup while adjusting the fence will
result in serious personal injury.
2. Turn the setscrews to align the edge of the
fence to the edge of the miter slot while
alternately locking and unlocking the fence
lock lever.
3. Check to see if the fence is parallel along
the length of the miter slot, carefully slide
the tip of your finger along the edge of the
miter slot and the fence to detect a variation
in spacing.
4. Readjust the setscrews as required.
If the wood is binding when fed through the
table saw and the cut edge is burned, the fence
may need to be adjusted out slightly. Use the
setscrews to adjust the back end of the fence
approximately 1⁄64" away from the miter slot.
Figure 10 shows the fence adjusted for use on
the right side of the blade.
DO NOT cut on the left side of the blade if the
fence was adjusted for cutting on the right
side of the blade. The wood will pinch and
could cause dangerous kick-back. Readjust
the fence when changing the side of the
blade you are cutting on.

-12- Shop Fox® Classic Fence
Figure 11. Lock Handle close up.
Fence-to-Table
Clearance
It is important to minimize the gap between
the bottom of the fence and the table so
thin material will not slide under the fence
during operation. This clearance must be
uniform along the table surface. It is also very
important that the fence does not contact the
table surface when sliding from side to side.
The support pads, two on the T shaped rail
and one on the end of the fence, support the
fence above the front and rear rails. As long
as those rails are flush with the table surface,
the table clearance should be okay. Over time
these pads will wear and may eventually need
replacement. Replacement pads are available
from your dealer.
If ripping thin laminates or veneers, clamp
an auxiliary fence to the SHOP FOX® Classic
Fence so it rests right on the table. This will
ensure that thin material will not slip under the
fence.
Lock Handle
The lock handle is cam actuated and locks
against the machined edge of the front rail
rectangular tube. Generally it will require no
adjustment. However it is sometimes possible
that the process of aligning the fence as
described the Fence Parallelism on Page 11
will cause the clamp to be too tight or too
loose. This can result when the setscrews are
both adjusted too far in or too far out.
To check the locking adjustment, lock the
handle in the down position, then try to move
the fence by pushing on its side. If the fence
slips when pushing with a moderate amount of
force (approximately 50 lbs. of lateral force),
it should be adjusted. Turn both setscrews in
an equal amount, then perform the parallelism
adjustment described on Page 11 again. This
will bring the locking cam closer to the front
rail tube and increase the locking pressure.

Shop Fox® Classic Fence -13-
3. Centralize the magnified cursor within
its range of adjustment and tighten the
screws. Mark the position of the hairline on
the front rail tube with a pencil. This is the
zero mark for applying the scale.
4. Remove the fence and apply a strip of
masking tape along the rail a 1⁄2'' in from
the front edge.
5. Using the zero mark as the starting point
and the masking tape as a guide, apply the
adhesive scale to the rail. See Figure 13.
Push the scale into place with heavy thumb
pressure.
Be careful when laying the scale into position
because the scale can be stretched if too
much pressure is applied.

6. To fine tune the position of the magnified
cursor, make a test cut and adjust the
cursor to correspond with the actual width
of the test board. This method accounts
for any vibration or wobble that may be
present in the spinning blade.
Different blades may have different widths
of cutting teeth, so readjustment is required
whenever changing type or style of blade. This
procedure must be repeated every time the saw
blade is changed to maintain accuracy.
When cutting on the left side of the blade,
this scale will not be accurate. It is possible to
attach another scale (not included) which can
be set for left side cutting. See Figure 14. The
magnified cursor assembly can be moved to the
left side of the fence to allow for orienting a
separate scale.
Scale and Cursor
The self adhesive scale and magnified cursor
provide fast and accurate fence positioning.
1. Loosen the adjusting screws on the
magnified cursor until the cursor can be
adjusted.
2. Raise the table saw blade guard out of the
way. With the fence mounted on the right
side of the blade, slide it over until its left
edge touches the side of the blade. See
Figure 12.

Correcting Mounting
Hole Misalignment
If the front and back mounting holes do not line
up with the existing holes in the table top, it
will be necessary to drill additional holes using
one of the three following methods. Drilling
and tapping holes into the edge of the table,
drilling through the edge of the table and
securing the rail with long bolts, washers, and
nuts, or drilling holes in the rail that align with
the holes in the table top.
Drilling and Tapping Mounting Holes
1. Position the rails flush with the top of the
table saw table, and with the left end of
the rails even with the left edge of the table
extension.
2. Clamp the rails to the table saw using C-
clamps or bar clamps.
3. Mark the mounting holes on the edge of the
table.
4. Remove the rail and center punch the middle
of the outlined holes on the table edge.
5. At each center punch location, drill a 1⁄8"
diameter starter hole, then drill a 5⁄16" hole
using the bit supplied with the SHOP FOX®
Classic Fence.
6. Insert the included 3⁄8"-16 tap in a tap
wrench if one is available. If a tap wrench
is not available use a socket and ratchet
wrench.
7. Carefully align the tap with the hole. Advance
the tap half a turn, back it out half a turn,
advance another half turn, etc., until the
tap turns freely or can be visually seen at
the exit end of the hole.
8. Back the tap out and proceed to the next
hole. It is not necessary to use cutting oil
when tapping cast iron.
9. Install the rails and the bolts.
Drilling Through-Holes
1. Position the rails flush with the top of the
table saw table, and with the left end of
the rails even with the left edge of the table
extension.
2. Clamp the rails to the table saw using C-
clamps or bar clamps.
3. Mark the mounting holes on the edge of the
table.
4. Remove the rail, and center punch the
middle of the outlined holes.
5. Drill a 7⁄16" hole all the way through the
table edge. Again, cutting oil should not be
required, but be sure to use a relatively slow
speed on the drill.
6. Remove any chips or burrs around the edge
of the hole which might cause the rail to
mount crooked.
7. Install the rails and long bolts and make sure
that the nut is fully threaded on the bolt.
Drilling Holes In the Rails
1. Clamp the rails to the table.
2. Using a try square and pencil, transfer the
location of the rail mounting hole onto the
rails.
3. Remove the rails, and center punch the
middle of the outlined holes.
4. Drill 1⁄2" holes in the rails that match the rail
mounting holes in your table.
5. Remove any chips or burrs around the edge
of the hole which might cause the rail to
mount crooked.
6. Install the rails and bolts.

Shop Fox® Classic Fence -15-
Attaching the wood facing to the fence:
1. Size a suitable piece of wood for the face
of the fence.
2. Drill and counterbore six 3⁄8" mounting
holes in the wood face piece using the
HDPE supplied fence facing as a drill
guide.
3. Attach the wood facing to the fence,
making sure the screws are counterbored
1⁄8" - 1⁄4" below the wood surface. Do not
over tighten.
To operate this, or any tool, safely and
efficiently, it is essential to become as familiar
with its characteristics as possible. Take as
much time as necessary to become acquainted
with the SHOP FOX® Classic Fence. The time
you invest before you begin to use it will be
time well spent.
Operation of this equipment has the potential
to propel debris into the air which can
cause eye injury. Always wear safety glasses
or goggles when operating equipment.
Everyday glasses or reading glasses only
have impact resistant lenses, they are not
safety glasses. Be certain the safety glasses
you wear meet the appropriate standards of
the American National Standards Institute
(ANSI).
It is extremely important to attach the wood
facing correctly. Lumber less than 3⁄4" is not
recommended. Screws or fasteners must be
counter sunk at least 1⁄8" below the wood
surface, but no more than 1⁄4".
Using Board Buddies®
A T-slot track can be mounted in the top of the
SHOP FOX® Classic Fence to accept another
popular product from Woodstock International
- Board Buddies®. These one directional, spring
loaded hold-down wheels keep material pressed
firmly against the table and fence. They are
fully adjustable and non-marking.
Be sure to request the T-nuts and T-slot
tracks separately from your Woodstock dealer
for mounting Board Buddies® to your fence.
Board Buddies® are a great addition to any
fence system! For the location of your nearest
Woodstock dealer, call Woodstock International
at [phone].
Using a Wood Fence
Facing
The SHOP FOX® Classic Fence can be faced
with 3⁄4" kiln dried hardwood, plywood or
medium density fiber board (MDF) in place
of the HDPE plastic fence sides. For certain
operations such as dadoing or close sawing, it
is necessary to have a fence material which
can be cut into. If using kiln dried lumber, use
a piece that is free of knots and other defects
and preferably a species with dimensional
stability such as maple, birch or beech.
