fence positions of 90 degrees and 135 degrees.

6.7     SETTING THE FENCE TO 90° and 135°

To check and adjust the positive stops to the 90 and 135 

degree settings:

- Put a square on the table with one end against the fence 

and adjust the fence until it is exactly 90 degrees to the 

table.

adjust the Allen screw (A) until a 90 degree setting is 

reached. Tighten the locking nut to retain the adjustment. 

FIG. 6.7.1.

tab away from the 90 degree stop bolt. Put a square on 

the table with one end against the fence and adjust the 

fence until it is exactly 135 degrees to the table. FIG.

With the fence set at 135°, the jointer will produce a 

45° bevel on your workpiece.
